Love…
…causes goose bumps every time we begin to kiss. My lips touching yours sets off a chain reaction within I can not explain, but accept openly as love deep and true fired by a passion new in its strength and vigor.

A poem titled “Peace” by Robert Byers
MarriageAmendmentinNorthCarolinaLike water
rushing down a hill
Laughing,
singing on its way
Like sunlight
over windowsill
Heralding
dawning of the day
Our love sprang
quickly into life
Growing stronger
as we went
And since you
said you’d be my wife
Evermore I’ll be content.

Love…
…is spilling out of me. The more I learn to love myself, the greater the abundance of affection I have to give another. When heart, mind and soul overflow together love is ready to be given without reservation.

From “The Witch Of Portobello” by Brazilian writer Paulo Coelho

and
all I
could
do was
surrender
and
accept
I was in love.

Love…
…narrows space and lessens burdens. It brightens day and enraptures night. Love knows no boundary, specific language or government. It is above all things created by humankind.

What Else There Is

Love…
…enhances the senses when romance is new. Colors appear brighter; touch is heightened; hearing is sensitive to the softest sigh; the smell of another becomes delicious and the taste of a kiss becomes bliss.

By Eppie Lederer better know as columnist Ann Landers
girl,love,orange,red,photography,love,blade-649d058e4d8602a14ecb0cb30f5677dd_hIf you have love
in your life
it can make up
for a great
many things
you lack.
If you don’t
have it,
no matter
what else
there is,
it’s not enough.

Love…
…begins as “like” and if it grows steady and sure, love takes firm root. It’s possible to love and not like someone, but rarely is this a happy union. A couple who loves and likes one another are true friends and committed lovers.

French romantic composer, Hector Berlioz
happy-coupleIt is so rare…
to find
a complete person,
with a soul,
a heart
and an imagination;
so rare for characters
as ardent and restless
as ours to meet
and to be matched
together,
that I hardly know how
to tell you what happiness
it gives me to know you.

Love…
…felt today is rooted in the remains of every past love I have known. As a tree decays and makes fertile the ground for new growth, loves gone by lie in broken pieces at the base of my heart so new love has rich fodder to grow in.

Swiss poet and mystic Johann Kasper Lavater
Each heart is a world…
You find within yourself
that you find without.
To know yourself
you have only
to set down
a true statement
of those that ever loved
… you.

Love…
…can come instantly without notice filled with fire and passion that burn both day and night as two discover each other from the outside in. Or love can grow gracefully from friendship filled with intimacy and honesty as two come to know each other from the inside out. Want to guess which one has the greatest chance of lasting?

From “The Shack” by Canadian author W. Paul Young
So many
believe
it is love
that grows,
but it is
knowing
that grows
and love
simply
expands to
contain it.

Love…
…is coming to know a person better and better while finding the mutual bond continues to grow through all the imperfection and fault discovered. The healthiest love is built on respect for what is admirable and empathy for what is not.

“An Active Noun” by TV personality and writer Fred Rogers
Love isn’t
a state of perfect caring.
It is an active noun
like struggle.
To love someone
is to strive
to accept
that person exactly
the way he or she is,
right here and now.

Love…
…is in reality, quite new to me; not what I thought love was, but what I am learning love really is. I used to think passion was the first step but with you I am learning becoming true and real friends should come first. Without it, the first flash of fire is often a destroyer.

An anonymous caption found on a Flickr.com photo post
If you’re alone,
I’ll be your shadow.
If you want to cry,
I’ll be your shoulder.
If you want a hug,
I’ll be your pillow.
If you need to be happy,
I’ll be your smile…
But anytime
you need a friend,
I’ll just be me.

Love…
… arrives like lightning. Growing close takes time, but realizing you have fallen in love comes in a sudden spark like a switch abruptly thrown. Love’s realization comes unexpectedly swift in its own good time.

From “If I fell” by Lennon and McCartney
If I fell in love with you
Would you promise to be true
And help me understand?
Cos I’ve been in love before
And I found that love was more
Than just holding hands.
