“...Would I, if I could, supplant one of any of the affections that I know to have taken root in you - that great and solemn one, for instance? I feel that if I could get myself remade, as if turned to gold, I WOULD not even then desire to become more than the mere setting to that diamond you must always wear.
The regard and esteem you now give me, in this letter,and which I press to my
heart and bow my head upon, is all I can take and all too embarrassing, using
all my gratitude.”
This is an extract from a love
letter written by Robert Browning to Elizabeth Barrett Browning. In today's fast
pace world where love messages are conveyed through mobile phones and e-cards we
may be sometimes asking ourselves a question. Have we lost our emotional powers
to write wonderful love letters to our beloved to melt her heart? May be or may
not be, but whatever it may be let us try to learn a few tips on how to write a
beautiful love letter.
We must remember that a love
letter can bring out our deepest emotions and we need to be careful as to how we
put it across to our lover. A woman is God’s most beautiful creation. She is
tender and she would love to read a letter, which touches her heart. Remember
that a mirror once broken can be glued but the crack remains eternally. When you
are writing a love letter remember never to use any words or sentence, which may
cause even a hairline crack in her heart. She may be kind enough to read it but
the feeling of any strong words may make her sad.
Always remember never to portray
your image as someone of high status or value. She will connect with a person
only from the heart and not anything else. Tell her that you love her for what
she is and plead her if she can love you for what you are. A love letter is all
about bringing out your emotions. Tell her what you felt when you saw her the
first time and then again and again and again. How you waited for her when she
got down from the bus. How the glances you’ll shared conveyed a million unspoken
words. How the silent tear drops that flowed from your eyes have never gone to
waste.
Start the letter with a very
touching line. If you are writing a letter for a first time you can start by
writing the name of your beloved. This can immediately connect both of you on a
friendly note rather than be too romantic. Sometimes over romanticism can kill.
The body of the letter should flow from the day you saw her and how your feeling
developed over time and today what makes you write the letter. Don’t forget to
tell her that you see in her your picture perfect lady with whom you want to
spend of your life with.
If you are writing a letter to
your beloved with whom you are having a relationship for sometime tell her that
how you have fallen in Love with her over and over again. Mention to her that
whatever she has given you have made you where you stand today. Mention how much
indebted you are to her and what your life will be without her. Last but not the
least tell her that you will always have your shoulders for her whenever she
needs them and you will hold her hands eternally.
Writing a love letter to your
wife is a great symbolism of love that you have for her even after years of
marriage. The beautiful kids that she has given you or the support that she has
given you all along during your ups and downs in life.
When you are ending a love
letter end with a line that summarizes your feelings for her. Something like
Love always, yours forever can make an impression that she will never forget.
A love letter is cherished for
life by someone. Hence dip it with emotions and never try to be diplomatic in
your language.
