My dearest love,
It has been three long years since you left and everyday it seems as if you were just here. I miss you so much, I don't know how much longer the gods will keep us away. I think of that day every moment. I am in a new land and it is rather strange. Of course it is very fortunate that they take anyone here. I see you everyday, your eyes, your lips. I can feel your hands, hear your voice. I feel as if you never left me. So many questions run through my mind, one in particular is my purpose. Why was I spared? I know I ask you every time I write you and you cannot answer this question. The gods don't like it when we question their actions. I am so lonely without you, our intimate moments, and all the other moments that were so filled with love we couldn't contain ourselves. With this leter, I am enclosing some more hair. I don't want you to forget me. When I come to see you, I want you to remember me and to love me like you used to. I see you whenever I close my eyes and I can't help but to smile. I love you my darling, and I always will. Love, your Katrine.
