A Witty Love Letter

有個小夥子非常愛一位姑娘，但姑娘的父親卻不喜歡他，不允許他們繼續發展下去。小夥子很想給姑娘寫封情書，但他知道姑娘的父親會先看，於是他給姑娘寫了這樣一封信：

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.

姑娘的父親看了這封信以後，非常高興的把信給了姑娘。姑娘看完信後也非常快樂，小夥子依然愛著她。你知道她為什麽高興嗎？其實，她初讀這封信時非常憂傷，但她怎麽也不相信那是他的真心話，於是她又默讀了幾遍，終於，她清楚了該怎樣來讀這封信。隻能一、三、五行如此類推來讀，直到信的結尾。

貝卡好! 說到情詩情歌情話情畫....我在艾麗思筆記那兒讀到這首:

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

抄這裏和你分享. (我管它叫"真與簡單的震撼" 以及"顫抖著的感性愛情全過程"....)

祝好!
