[Excerpts]
14 July 1861
Camp Clark, Washington [D.C.]
My very dear Sarah:
The indications are very strong that we shall move in a few days -- perhaps tomorrow. Lest I should not be able to write again, I feel impelled to write a few lines that may fall under your eye when I shall be no more....
I have no misgivings about, or lack of confidence in the cause in which I am engaged, and my courage does not halt or falter. I know how strongly American civilization now leans on the triumph of the Government, and how great a debt we owe to those who went before us through the blood and sufferings of the Revolution. And I am willing -- perfectly willing -- to lay down all my joys in this life, to help maintain this Government, and to pay that debt....
Sarah my love for you is deathless, it seems to bind me with mighty cables that nothing but Omnipotence could break; and yet my love of Country comes over me like a strong wind and bears me unresistibly on with all these chains to the battle field.
The memories of the blissful moments I have spent with you come creeping over me, and I feel most gratified to God and to you that I have enjoyed them so long. And hard it is for me to give them up and burn to ashes the hopes of future years, when, God willing, we might still have lived and loved together, and seen our sons grown up to honorable manhood, around us. I have, I know, but few and small claims upon Divine Providence, but something whispers to me -- perhaps it is the wafted prayer of my litle Edgar, that I shall return to my loved ones unharmed. If I do not my dear Sarah, never forget how much I love you, and when my last breath escapes me on the battle field, it will whisper your name. Forgive my many faults, and the many pains I have caused you. How thoughtless and foolish I have often times been! How gladly would I wash out with my tears every little spot upon your happiness....
But, O Sarah! if the dead can come back to this earth and flit unseen around those they loved, I shall always be near you; in the gladdest days and in the darkest nights . . . always, always, and if there be a soft breeze upon your cheek, it shall be my breath[;] as the cool air fans your throbbing temple, it shall be my spirit passing by. Sarah do not mourn me dead; think I am gone and wait for thee, for we shall meet again....
[The war began one week later on the plains of Manassas, Virginia. Major Sullivan Ballou of the 2nd Rhode Island Infantry died there at the battle of Bull Run.]

Touch me softly, no one will notice
Tell me how it ends if you know it
Fell for you so hard, oh, I’m clumsy
Your questions to the moon made it easy
Our love, it’s my favorite piece of art
Best thing ever painted by my heart
I could keep doing this forever
Floating with you keeps getting better
After so many sunsets together
Figured you deserved a love letter
Our love, it’s my favorite piece of art (Don’t let it fade)
Best thing ever painted by my heart
Loved its pastel tones right from the start (Don’t say they’re faded)
Our love, it’s my favorite piece of art
…from another time is what I imagine these would be.
However, since the language is a tad foreign (I can’t recognise any words to be able to guess at their origin) I’ll have to stick with my my initial feelings…why else would they have been kept so neatly bound?
Love letters straight from your heart
Keep us so near while apart
I'm not alone in the night
When I can have all the love you write
I memorize every line
And I kiss the name that you sign
And, darling, then I read again right from the start
Love letters straight from your heart
I memorize every line
And I kiss the name that you sign
And, darlin', then I read again right from the start
Love letters straight from your heart.

Letters from my boyfriend at the time - now my husband for over 45 years. Letters he sent to me whilst he was away studying at University. Much more romantic than text messages 😊❤️

Last week I received an enthousiastic email from Florian Krause. He sent me a brilliant image. -DOES.
"Your piece inspired me from the beginning of May, because it was more rough, the "E" flows into the room and the spot looked amazing. But just
last week I could find out where it was. And I must say I scared my ass off alone at that spot ;-) weird sounds around me...". Florian Krause
