The Lea O'Dimm Letters (1-5)

(i)
...and he waned his life away looking for love; never coming from the source he poured his so readily, never from the direction of his gentle gaze.

(ii)

(iii)
such heavy lightness, as she floated down those stairs. he yearned to feel, but not this way. it was the first time he saw her heart.

(iv)
"your eyes look as if they've not seen her for a thousand years..."

"then i'm glad you see what my blind eyes can't..."

(v)
how joyous were his dreams of his ex-lover. sequences of simple smiles and lightness. lamentations when he woke; soon, he lived to sleep and woke only for sustenance.
