To Liesel, with love.
Please allow me to tell you everything I keep inside me. Since that day you knocked down the neighborhood bully, I knew that what I felt for you was no longer a mere friendship. You conquered my heart completely. Everything else became more enjoyable and fun. I remember when we would steal books and food together, every detail of our adventures. I just wanted you to know that having that book rescued for you on that cold morning in that freezing river is just a proof of everything I would do for you. I would do anything to be with you again. If I had known my end, I would have kissed you over and over again, I would have asked you to kiss me, I wanted to perpetuate these beautiful moments. I want you to know that you will never fall into oblivion. From here to eternity, I want you to know that the purpose of my soul has been fulfilled, from the moment I met you. You became the reason for living my last days. Thank you for being who you are.
Yours sincerely,
Rudy steiner
