“I want you every second and every hour of the day. Sometimes I am flooded by an agony of physical longing for you; a craving for your nearness and your touch. At other times I feel I should be quite content if I could only hear the sound of your voice. Nothing and no one in the world could kill the love I have for you. I have surrendered my whole individuality, the very essence of my being to you. I have given you my body time after time to treat as you pleased, to tear in pieces if such had been your will. All the hoardings of my imagination I have laid bare to you. There isn’t a recess in my brain into which you haven’t penetrated. I have clung to you and caressed you and slept with you and I would like to tell the whole world I clamour for you.” — Violet Trefusis, from a letter to Vita Sackville-West
