This script is a short narrative written by u/livejoker Performed by ReadByRanae Summary: It's impossible to tell someone how you feel once they're gone. Yet for a moment you hear a familiar voice. You hear their pain, you understand their sorrow, and in that moment you find comfort. They haven't forgotten you, just like you haven't forgotten them. Trigger Warning: while vague on the type of loss this is, it alludes to someone passing away. ............................................................

These letters and more were exchanged as he fought in the American Civil War (1861-1865), to in his words, “... aid in the glorious work to the overthrow a system of cruelty and tyranny, bursting loose those chains which keeps the husbands, wives, children, lovers and friends, of millions asunder.”

Link to Letter 1: Amelia
“My Dear Lewis: “Pardon my negligence in allowing so many weeks to pass away without writing and accept this tardy letter. Your note of Apr. 8, has acted as a reminder, and I with pleasure write.”
My Own Dear Amelia: How can I express the pleasure it affords me to receive a letter written by the hand of her I love?... I may say that your letter brought you more fully before my sight if possible, and in that way added an increased pleasantness to my thoughts and dreams of you.
Men and women talk of Love, can any one describe it?”
