我亲爱的阿黛勒:
你的几句话就调整了我的心情。
是的,你可以随意处置我。
明天,如果你那温柔的声音和可爱嘴唇的温情都不能使我复苏,我就真的是一命呜呼了。
今夜,我躺下时的心情与昨夜是多么不同啊!
昨天,阿黛勒,因为我相信你不爱我了,死神降临正是我求之不得的。
但我还是对自己说,就算她真的不爱我了,就算我已经没有任何地方值得她去爱了,就算没有了她的爱,余生将索然无味,难道我就应因此而死去吗?我活着难道是为了自己的幸福吗?不!
不论她爱不爱我,我的此生都是献给她的。
我有什么权利要求她的爱?难道我能胜过天使或神灵?我爱她,不错,即使没有回报,我也甘愿为她牺牲一切,甚至放弃被她爱的希望。
为了她的一个微笑,为了她的一次顾盼,我愿意为她做任何事。
我有别的选择吗?我活着不就是为了爱她吗?就算她对我漠不关心,甚至恨我,那只是我的不幸,如此而已。
只要她幸福,又有什么关系呢?是的,如果她不能爱我,我能责备的只有我自己。
我的天职就是紧紧跟随她,用我的生命去保护她;甘心做她抵御一切危险的屏障;把头颅献给她做垫脚石,只要她永远无忧无虑,我不祈求奖励,不渴望报偿。
如果她能偶尔发发善心,对她的奴隶投来一丝怜悯的目光,在需要时记得他,那就是他莫大的幸福!
唉!
