No One Has Ever Loved Me
The letter from Clara
Yes?
It's over. Finished.
I'm sorry.
Sorry? I would have thought that you would be pleased.
I don't wish to see you sad.
I feel so much... but I'm not really sad
I thought you loved Clara?
I did love Clara. I did, but
No one has ever loved me
As deeply as you
No one has truly loved me
As you have, Fosca
Love without reason
Love without mercy
Love without pride or shame
Love unconcerned
With being returned—
No wisdom, no judgment
No caution, no blame
No one has ever known me
As clearly as you
No one has ever shown me
What love could be like until now
Not pretty or safe or easy
But more than I ever knew
Love within reason—that isn't love
And I've learned that from you
Are you cold?
No, I'm afraid.
Of what?
All this happiness
Coming when there's so little time
Too much happiness
More than I can bear
You do love me, don't you?
Yes, I love you.
Say it again.
I love you.
Be calm, strong. I am yours.
Yes?
It's over. Finished.
I'm sorry.
Sorry? I would have thought that you would be pleased.
I don't wish to see you sad.
I feel so much... but I'm not really sad
I thought you loved Clara?
I did love Clara. I did, but
No one has ever loved me
As deeply as you
No one has truly loved me
As you have, Fosca
Love without reason
Love without mercy
Love without pride or shame
Love unconcerned
With being returned—
No wisdom, no judgment
No caution, no blame
No one has ever known me
As clearly as you
No one has ever shown me
What love could be like until now
Not pretty or safe or easy
But more than I ever knew
Love within reason—that isn't love
And I've learned that from you
Are you cold?
No, I'm afraid.
Of what?
All this happiness
Coming when there's so little time
Too much happiness
More than I can bear
You do love me, don't you?
Yes, I love you.
Say it again.
I love you.
Be calm, strong. I am yours.
