Love…
…is a mystery to never completely solved. It is a question for which no complete answers exist. Every heart loves differently making as many different kinds of love as there are people.
From “Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman” by Haruki Murakami
I sometimes
think that
people’s hearts
are like
deep wells.
Nobody knows
what’s at
the bottom.
All you can do
is imagine by
what comes
floating to
the surface
every once
in a while.

Love…
…is part known fact and part enigma; both explainable and inexplicable at the same time. You know for certain when it’s present yet can offer no concrete proof what so ever to anyone else of what you feel.
French-speaking Swiss author Germaine de Staël
Love
is the
emblem
of
eternity;
it confounds
all notion
of time;
effaces
all
memory
of a
beginning;
all fear
of an end.

Love…
…is like snow falling with no control except from the speed it falls with. Drifting to come to rest on a specific spot unknown until it lands, love like a snowflake finds a home.
Quote by a writer unknown/anonymous
Things that fall:
petals
teardrops
snowflakes
rain
stars
tides
eyelids
time
shadows
leaves
the sun
and me,
for you.

Love…
…is alive sparkling within as sleep comes to find me, when I wake and through each day. As the mystery of “us” unfolds there is fear, but joy is stronger. You came to me unexpectedly, but I am deeply grateful for the surprise.
Quote by a writer unknown/anonymous
I will love you always.
When your hair is white,
I will still love you.
When the smooth softness
of youth is replaced
by the delicate softness of age,
I will still want you.
When your face is full of the lines
of every smile you have ever smiled,
of every surprise I have seen flash
through your eyes, when every tear
you have cried has left its mark
upon your face, I will treasure you
all the more, because I was there
to see it all. I will share your life
with you and I will love you
until my last breath.

Love…
…is nearby when one writes to the other “I will go to walk around the capital thinking about you and me… once hold hands… walking together here”. Only an open heart can recognize another open heart.
From “Undercover” by Beth Kephart
Have you
ever watched
a leaf
leave a tree?
It falls
upward first,
and then
it drifts
toward
the ground,
just as I
find myself
drifting
towards you.

Love…
…is like a firefly blinking, giving its light and leading you toward it. If you’re lucky you can catch it. If you are very lucky you won’t have to. Love will come land on you.
Little is known about the writer, Timothy Oliveira
There are two kinds of sparks,
the one that goes off
with a hitch like a match,
but it burns quickly.
The other is the kind
that needs time,
but when
the flame strikes…
it’s eternal,
don’t forget that.

Love…
… can’t be captured. Trying to hold on to it is like holding your breath; it only works for a short while. Imprisoning love is as impossible as juggling water.
Writer and philosopher James Browning
Love requires
an open-handed heart.
Grasping,
strangles love
and makes it flee.
Setting love free,
empowers it to stay.
Caged love
will escape at first chance.
Free to roam,
love will remain home,
warmed by the fire.

Love…
…is sitting quietly, listening to romantic music and letting my imagination have unfettered freedom. In those moments nothing seems impossible. It feels as if the more I imagine what might be the more likely it becomes.
From “Three Little Words” by Jessica Thompson
I believe that love
is an overwhelming,
all-consuming force,
and when its genuine
you can’t really ignore it.
No matter
how long it takes.
It knocks down
your door by force.
It keeps you
awake at night.
It plagues
your thoughts
and burns your soul.

Love…
… says we should commit the perfect crime. I’ll steal your heart and you’ll steal mine. Then we’ll make a perfect getaway together and live the life we’ve only dared dream of.
“A Time For Us” by a writer unknown
Just like the sun
goes down at night.
Just like the moon
and stars come out
to light up the sky.
Just like every spring
has gloomy days
full of thunderous rain
before new flowers bloom.
Just like the river
travels long rough miles
through cities and towns just to
flow into the sea for eternity.
There will be a time for us.

Love…
…will sneak up and surprise you. When you least expect it is when love arrives. It doesn’t care about what is convenient or what your circumstances are. True love comes when it comes and not a moment sooner or later.
From “The Truth About Forever” by Sarah Dessen
There is never
a time or place
for true love.
It happens
accidentally,
in a heartbeat,
in a single flashing,
throbbing moment.
