Lomie - February 1943

I found her room; tapped on the door — she opened it. There were no words, only breath taking silence.... She was more beautiful than I remembered.... The next thing I knew, she was in my arms, tip-toeing to kiss me — our lips met.... The kiss did not say, “I’m sorry.” It said, “I love you! And I want you to love me. Let’s be lovers again tonight — and see what tomorrow brings.”
