My Dearest Elizabeth, 

You know how I hate that nick name. It made me smile to know you are still as witty and cunning as always.Your letter has moved even the deepest, darkest corners of my troubled soul. I am alive and well thanks to my love for you that keeps me going everyday. Don’t fret my love because we will find each  again. We always do. 

I miss you so much I wish I could just walk to wherever you are. Just like you wrote, we will find each other again. Maybe not in our lifetime but we will, when we are strongest we will come together again. 

I am sorry to hear about your father and I wish I could be there too. I send my deepest and dearest condolences to your family and to you I send my heart who has decided to be miserable as long as we are apart. I hope this soothes you pain. And mine. 

Thank you for the birthday wishes and happy birthday to you too. I wish I could be there with you today but sadly I can't. 

I love you, forever and always. 

Until we meet again. 

                                                                                      Your loyal servant, 

                                                                                                      Edward Silber
