A Witty Love Letter

有个小伙子非常爱一位姑娘，但姑娘的父亲却不喜欢他，不允许他们继续发展下去。小伙子很想给姑娘写封情书，但他知道姑娘的父亲会先看，于是他给姑娘写了这样一封信：

There once lived a lad who was deeply in love with a girl, but disliked by the girl's father, who didn't want to see any further development of their love. The lad was eager to write to the girl, yet he was quite sure that the father would read it first. So he wrote such a letter to the girl:

A Love Letter
Source: Internet

My love for you I once expressed
no longer lasts, instead, my distaste for you
is growing with each passing day. Next time I see you,
I even won't like that look yours.
I'll do nothing but
look away from you. You can never expect I'll
marry you. The last chat we had
was so dull and dry that you shouldn't think it
made me eager to see you again.

If we get married, I firmly believe I'll
live a hard life, I can never
live happily with you, I'll devote myself
but not
to you. No one else is more
harsh and selfish and least
solicitous and considerate than you.
I sincerely want to let you know
what I said is true. Please do me a favor by
ending our relations and refrain from
writing me a reply. Your letter is always full of
things which displease me. You have no
sincere care for me. So long! Please believe
I don't love you any longer. Don't think
I still have a love of you!

Having read the letter, the father felt relieved and gave it to his daughter with a light heart. The girl also felt quite pleased after she read it carefully, her lad still had a deep love for her. Do you know why? In fact, she felt very sad when she read the letter for the first time. But she read it for a few more times and, at last, she found the key - only every other line should be read, that is the first line, the third, the fifth … and so on to the end.

姑娘的父亲看了这封信以后，非常高兴的把信给了姑娘。姑娘看完信后也非常快乐，小伙子依然爱着她。你知道她为什么高兴吗？其实，她初读这封信时非常忧伤，但她怎么也不相信那是他的真心话，于是她又默读了几遍，终于，她清楚了该怎样来读这封信。只能一、三、五行如此类推来读，直到信的结尾。

贝卡好! 说到情诗情歌情话情画....我在艾丽思笔记那儿读到这首:

I Walk In
I See You
I Watch You
I Scan You
I Wait For You
I Tickle You
I Tease You
I Search You
I Breathe You
I Talk

I Smile
I Touch Your Hair
You Are The One
You Are The One
Who Did This To Me
You Are My Own
I Show You
I Feel You
I Ask You
I Don't Ask

I Don't Wait
I Won't Ask You
I Can't Tell You
I Lie
I Am Crying Hard
There Was Blood
No One Told Me
No One Knew
My Mother Knows
I Forget Your Name

I Didn't Think
I Bury My Head
I Bury Your Head
I bury You
My Fever
My Skin
I Cannot Eat
I Cannot Walk
I Am Losing Time

I Am Losing Ground
I Cannot Stand It
I Cry
I Cry Out
I Bite
I Bite Your Lip
I Breathe Your Breath
I Pulse
I Pray
I Pray Aloud

I Smell You On My Skin
I Say The Word
I Say Your Name
I Cover You
I Shelter You
I Run From You
I Sleep Beside You
I Smell You
On My Clothes
I Keep Your Clothes

抄这里和你分享. (我管它叫"真与简单的震撼" 以及"颤抖着的感性爱情全过程"....)

祝好!
