course of a happy, contented, interesting & exciting life.
Oh darling - how I love you & how I long to be
with you. Every day that passes I love you more & long for
you more. And every time I think of you, which is very
often every day - I realize what a sweet & lovely wife I
have. I thrill when I think that she loves me. And
that Maria is waiting to see me too. I am very
fortunate, my darling. We, neither of us, look upon
ourselves as being lucky people, when we think of the
blows we have had to stand. But notwithstanding
our darling Lisa & our first Marie - I am still a
very fortunate person. Never, for one split second
have I doubted my everlasting & complete & constant
love for you, my darling Barbara. And I have
felt the same about your love for me. Please always
feel the same about me. I promise you, from
the depths of my heart, that I will always be
worth it. And I will try very hard to be more
worth it. If only they would let me come
home. I want to come so much & I feel that
my reasons are better than anyone else's. But I am
so afraid that I have failed again. We have very
much to stand, haven't we darling? Our reward will
always be when we meet again, whenever it is.
But the waiting is so hard & painful.

Much love & a big kiss to Marie - & all my love
& many big kisses to you my own darling
beautiful Barbara. Harry. xxxxxxx
