"Dear Anne, 
Since we are parting ways, perhaps forever, I feel I must unburden my heart.
You are the fond object of my affection and my desire.
You and you alone are the keeper of the key to my heart.
Please, don't be alarmed. I don't expect your favor, but I can't in good conscious not reveal myself.
I'm not engaged, nor will I be, unless it's to you, Anne, my Anne with an e.
It always has been and always will be you.

With love, Gilbert.

Ps. Thanks for the pen, good luck at Queens."
