My love, you’ve been waiting for these words for so long. I finally decided to write them to you. I’m confused and extremely worried. But I can no longer carry these words with me like a heavy burden. I’ve admired you for a long, long time yet never opened myself. I dream again and again of looking at you and drowning in you. I dream of touching you, breathing you. There are no words I can use to convey my feelings to you. It’s probably not love anymore, it’s something much, much more. When I look at you, my heart is ready to burst out of my chest, I want to cling to you and never let go. I want to merge with you, be a part of you. To feel what you feel, to experience your happiness and your pain. Share them with me. The rustle of the wind in your forests, the sound of water that washing your shores. Animals and plants that you give life and home. How grateful I am to you for all of this. And forgive us for sometimes being so rude to you, so thoughtless. For not always being able to understand you. We will never be able to pay for the love that you give us. My love for you will be with me forever, and is getting stronger and stronger every day. You’re so beautiful. I love you so much, Siberia.
