Truly, Madly, Deeply: An Open Letter to LaMar

Sometimes I think about you...
or I'll tell someone about something we did together...
and this amazing happiness and warmth fills my heart

You approach life with this wide-eyed wonderment...
almost child-like, but not naive...
it makes me feel a little more innocent and
a little more loving toward the world
when I see your gut-reaction of appreciation and
excitement about the things around you

I'm actually pinching myself right now,
and there are tears welling up in my eyes
because I am so happy to know that you
love me..
just as much as I love you.

I love you LaMar.
Only you
Always you...

-Your Dorothy Marie
