Dearest No face,

Here I am writing my first letter to you, and it feels damn awkward to do so! I have to admit that I am in a loss for the proper words to use here, but I am not supposed to feel so because our little game here makes it imperatively necessary that you understand me! You are supposed to be ‘THE ONE’, which explains it all! It is true that neither of us knows the other in reality, but let us forget about reality and go for the sweet fantasy. Let’s pretend that we know each other very well; more like soul mates, in which case understanding each
other will be a natural thing for both of us.

I know if you were real, things might turn out differently! But let me ask you this: do not people write diaries as though they were addressing a human, not some inanimate object that cannot do them any good except comfort them of course! Still, this remains a very healthy method of release! Therefore, I thought I would create my own from of diaries, with you as my refuge and my sanctuary!

So, how do we start? I believe people usually start their letters to each other by a greeting! Therefore, here is a big hello to you my sweet; it is great knowing you are here by my side, if only in a sheer fantasy! The funny thing is I feel like I do know you, and by that I mean truly know you! You know, sometimes when I close my eyes at night, I see you in my mind’s eye, and believe me though without a tangible identity do I see you, it gives me pleasure & peace just to live the feeling of having the idea of you in my little world, in my dreams, and my day to day activities!

Sometimes when I sleep, I dream of you! I always see you standing tall, smiling for me and guarding my every step! I know it sounds crazy, but it does happen and I never want to wake up! Now hear this out, never did you have a face in any of those dreams; it is always a bright spot of light covering your facial features making it impossible for me to complete the image I have for you in my mind! Thus, I have named you “No face”! And don’t worry, not knowing how you’d look like won’t stop me from writing to you, because my heart will lead me to the true you one day, that much I know and that much I believe! You should believe in that too my love, in your heart of hearts you just have to know me, you have to find me! And when you do, I would expect you to read this letter to me aloud;)

I am filling you with surprise, aren’t I?! Well don’t be! Even if the whole idea of me writing to you feels incomprehensible to you, just let it be, and let me be.

I guess I am running out of words here, and it is probably too much for you to take in all at once. So, until my next letter, just remember this: 



To the dream I write,
To a heart wide awake,
To a vision that keeps
Haunting me..
To my blindness
When I lose the way!



Love you,
Zainab

Your words are amazingly put together declaring a true love.

What I really love about the letter is your deep feelings and emotions that totally guided me throughout. STUNNING masha'Allah :)

"...you have to find me! And when you do, I would expect you to read this letter to me aloud ;)"<--- Love this part! it's really cute ;)

Sweet sweet sweet Hadeel,

You being always the first to comment actually makes the post the more special! I love it when you do:))))))

And wallah wallah I laughed and smiled throughout reading your comment and the smile remained on my lips for a very long time!

He does feel real, eh? I always get the feeling that I am addressing a real person whenever I write one of these letters, and I feel so happy talking to no face on paper! That is why when I read what I have written after a while I feel surprised that it has come out so vivid!

I am glad you liked it, and by the way I love that part about reading the letter aloud too;P

In answer to your question, sometimes I get the feeling that no face is just around the corner waiting for me to notice him! And other times I just feel that he is so far away! It is puzzling!

Hey good news, there are more and more letter coming, which you'll love even more;D

Thank you sweetheart, for always making me smile,,, and smile:)))) and for being so open about expressing your admiration towards my writings.

Love you
-Big hug
