In putting into words how much we 1 someone, sometimes it is easier to do so in 2 than face-to-face. One cannot help but 3 the lover who, 4 the object of his affection face-to-face, becomes 5 and lost for words. Here distance may help. For 6 not only makes the heart grow fonder, it also provides the perfect excuse for a(n) 7 of love letters in which the tongue-tied lover can give a more 8 display of his innermost thoughts. Unable to 9 speak freely about his feelings, with pen and paper he may 10 easily write down some fine words. Watered by these, love will hopefully start budding.
