though still in bed, my thoughts go out to you, my immortal beloved, now and then joyfully, then sadly, waiting to learn whether or not fate will hear us -
i can live only wholly with you or not at all -
yes, i am resolved to wander so long away from you until i can fly to your arms and say that i am really at home with you, and can send my soul enwrapped in you into the land of spirits -
yes, unhappily it must be so -
you will be the more contained since you know my fidelity to you. No one else can ever possess my heart - never - never -
oh god, why must one be parted from one whom one so loves.
and yet my life in V is now a wretched life -
your love makes me at once the happiest and the unhappiest of men -
at my age i need a steady, quiet life - can that be so in our connection?
my angel, i have just been told that the mailcoach goes every day - therefore i must close at once so that you may receive the letter at once -
be calm, only by a calm consideration of our existence can we achieve our purpose to live together -
be calm - love me - today - yesterday - what tearful longings for you - you - you - my life - my all - farewell.
oh continue to love me - never misjudge the most faithful heart of your beloved.
ever thine
ever mine
ever ours
