8 Love Letters that Have the Power to Redefine Relationships

LOVELETTERS_HEADER2

Remember those days when you used to write love letters to your crush, making sure the words rhyme, have a hint of humor, or maybe even a little spray of your cologne on the paper and seal it with a kiss, and secretly slip it in between your crush’s books or on their desk when they’re not looking? Yep, those were the days of pure, innocent love.

Fastforward to today and the closest love letter we probably get is a prompt “Hi. :)” and we’re already on our feet. Don’t let romanticism die! Let’s all bring back the love letters that we so tried our very best to write and get inspiration from these famous love letters written by notable people:

 

8. From Jimi Hendrix to his “Little girl”

“little girl…..
happiness is within you….so unlock the chains from your heart and let yourself grow—
like the sweet flower you are…..
I know the answer—
Just spread your wings and set yourself
FREE

Love to you forever,
Jimi Hendrix”

 

7. From Napoleon Bonaparte to his wife Josephine de Beauharnais

“Paris, December 1795
I wake filled with thoughts of you. Your portrait and the intoxicating evening which we spent yesterday have left my senses in turmoil. Sweet, incomparable Josephine, what a strange effect you have on my heart! Are you angry? Do I see you looking sad? Are you worried?… My soul aches with sorrow, and there can be no rest for you lover; but is there still more in store for me when, yielding to the profound feelings which overwhelm me, I draw from your lips, from your heart a love which consumes me with fire? Ah! it was last night that I fully realized how false an image of you your portrait gives!
You are leaving at noon; I shall see you in three hours.
Until then, mio dolce amor, a thousand kisses; but give me none in return, for they set my blood on fire.”

 

6. From Marilyn Monroe to Joe DiMaggio

“I don’t know how to tell you just how much I miss you. I love you till my heart could burst. All I love, all I want, all I need is you—forever. I want to be just where you are and be just what you want me to be. I know it’s lousy of me to be so late so often, and I promise to try a million times harder, I promise.
Love, Marilyn”

 

5. From Pete Wentz to his sons Bronx and Saint

“Boys: always take the high road, even when the low road seems easier or simpler. Let your kindness radiate and defend those who cannot defend themselves. Be yourself when it is not popular to be… Never let the world take away your creativity and divergent thinking. Be the color of lighting, be wild, and always laugh a lot. Never forget who you are.”

 

4. From John Keats to his neighbor Fanny Brawne

“My love has made me selfish. I cannot exist without you – I am forgetful of everything but seeing you again.”

 

3. Nathaniel Hawthorne to Sophia Peabody

“love thee into the next state of existence, and therefore do not realise that thou art here as subject to corporeal harm as is thy husband himself—nay, ten times more so, because thy earthly manifestation is refined almost into spirit. “

 

2. From Johnny Cash to his wife June

“Happy Birthday Princess,
We get old and get use to each other. We think alike. We read each other’s minds. We know what the other wants without asking. Sometimes we irritate each other a little bit. Maybe sometimes take each other for granted.
But once in awhile, like today, I meditate on it and realise how lucky I am to share my life with the greatest woman I ever met. You still fascinate and inspire me. You influence me for the better. You’re the object of my desire, the #1 Earthly reason for my existence. I love you very much.”

 

1. US President Richard Nixon to his wife Pat

“Every day and every night I want to see you and be with you. Yet I have no feeling of selfish ownership or jealousy. Let’s go for a long ride Sunday; let’s go to the mountains weekends; let’s read books in front of fires; most of all, let’s really grow together and find the happiness we know is ours.”
