I am writing to you on Sunday evening, which is the time I like to
write to you best, because I feel the quietest and descend the most
into my real self, where my love is strongest and deepest.
So you know I always have a fancy at such times that our love makes us
somehow alone together in the world. We seem to have a deep life
together apart from all other people on earth, and which we cannot
show, explain or impart to them.
At least my affection seems to isolate me in the deepest moments from
all others, and it makes me speak with my whole heart and soul to you
and you only. And perhaps this isolation is one reason why deep love
makes one feel - at least in some moments - so religious.
With deep and abiding love,
Walter
