Pursuing
New Love
All My Life I Needed You
Darling [First Name of the Person Who Will Receive This Letter],
There was a time when the thought of seeking someone to love was at the bottom of my list.
A solitary walk on the beach was more attractive than being wrapped in a lover's arms.
There just existed too many complications in loving. I had no need to care for anyone
other than myself.
Now I see how self-absorbed I was. I don't understand what made me think that I could
survive on my own. I didn't see the need for companionship. Wasn't that a concept that
could easily be shared with a pet?
I suppose that I was so lonely that I couldn't describe it. I could only deny that I
needed another. Work and accomplishments could not satisfy the emptiness, yet in my
stubbornness I would not seek you out.
I still don't know what you saw that made you look past the disguises. I thought I fooled
everyone in that I needed no other. In truth, I can confirm that all my life I needed you.
You completed me and filled the empty place in my heart. You made me whole.
I love you more each day, now and always [First Name of the Person Who Will Receive This

[Your Name]
