Love…
…puts an unavoidable craving toward another into mind, heart and soul; a thirst only the beloved can quench. Even if two lovers abide for only a time that makes their love no less true and real.
American poet and Pulitzer Prize winner Mary Oliver
To live
in this world,
you must
be able to do
three things:
to love
what is
mortal;
to hold it
against
your bones
knowing
your life
depends on it;
and when
the time comes,
to let go.

Love…
…keeps you close always. You are alive in my heart, constant in my thoughts and permanently mingled with my soul. There is no separate “me” anymore; only you and I; us.
“Have I Ever Told You…” by Gianella Ramirez
Have I ever told you
When I stand still
I can hear
the beating of your heart,
Beating along with mine?
Have I ever told you
When my arms feel empty
I hug myself and,
somehow,
I feel the warmth
Of your body embracing mine?
Have I ever told you
when I’m missing you
I close my eyes
and in my mind
I’m safe in your arms?
Have I ever told you
No matter how
this world separates us
We are still one person
Until the end of time?

Love…
…felt familiar from the moment I began to fall for you. It didn’t feel like a new spark, but rather a dormant one I had always carried. A sleeping ember was only waiting for your breath to awakened it and set a fire in my heart.
First non-European to win Literature Nobel Prize Rabindranath Tagore
I seem to have
loved you in
numberless
forms,
numberless
times,
in life after
life, in age
after age
forever.

Love…
…has changed all my perceptions. With my eyes I see more beauty. With my nose I smell more delights. Hearing your voice soothes me. Speaking your name rouses my heart. I have yet to be able to intelligently describe the taste of your lips.
Irish novelist, short-story writer and poet George Moore
The hours I spend with you
I look upon as sort
of a perfumed garden,
a dim twilight,
and a fountain
singing to it.
You and you alone
make me feel
that I am alive.
Other men it is said
have seen angels,
but I have seen thee
and thou art enough.

Love…
…makes everyone a daydreamer either about the love he or she has found or hopes for. Anyone who says otherwise is not telling the truth. Loving and being loved is the most sought after prize on Earth.
Brazilian lyricist and novelist Paulo Coelho
Tell your
heart that
the fear
of suffering
is worse
than the
suffering itself.
And no
heart has
ever suffered
when it
goes in
search of
its dream.

Love…
…can endure. Though years and decades; misery and happiness; accomplishment and failure; joy and heartbreak; in life, and I suspect after death, I have loved you best, most and above all. You will always be “the one”.
Love Quote by a writer unknown/anonymous
If
I could
reach up
and hold
a star for
every time
you’ve made
me smile,
the entire
evening sky
would be
in the palm
of my hand.

Love…
…unrequited is still love. Some of the greatest romances told were known only to one person with unreciprocated love carried as a secret song in a single heart.
From Don Juan by Anglo-Scottish poet Lord Byron
Then
there were sighs,
the deeper for suppression,
And
stolen glances,
sweeter for the theft,
And
burning blushes,
tho’ for no transgression,
Tremblings when met,
and restlessness when left.
