une âme sœur perdue

10/25

Ma lune,

I believe you will be a truly wonderful nurse. You are so loving of all people.

I mourn for Louis and his family in private, pray that they may find pace in these hard times. I do, however, feel guilt for this. At times, I do believe that I mourn more for your sake than theirs.

Even though the bleak and gray skies that war brings, I still see the beauty in everything when I get your letters. Even the darkest aspects of life have light with you.

We should be moving soon. I can't say where or when, but it should be happening. I'll write every moment I can.

When the only lullaby around is the screams of the injured and the bombing of shells, I look to the moon and know that somewhere, you are looking at the same one, and we aren't so far apart.

...

That sounded better in my head than on paper, but I believe you know what my heart means.

I love you. To the moon and back.

Klaus
