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.

Until the End of Time

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?
Life After Life

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.
You and You Alone

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.
The Entire Evening Sky

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.
Secret Song in a Single Heart
Posted in Mystery of love, Power of Love, Strength of Love, tagged always with me, love from a distance, loving with all my senses on May 11, 2013 |
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.
It’s Here

Love…
…lasted long enough. Our first chance was long ago when we were too young and immature to successfully make a life together. Not in my wildest dreams did I imagine we’d get a second chance. Oh, my love, it’s here!
From “The Book of Happy Endings…” by Elise Valmorbida
Old love, I thought I’d never see the time
because of all we’ve done and often said
when I’d be yours, my dear, and you’d be mine.
And what relief to soften, and resign
the battle of the heart over the head.
old love, I thought I’d never see the time
When qualms and cold feet that could undermine
all we’ve held out for, dissipate instead
now that I’m yours, my dear and you are mine.
I’m still amazed how our two lives align
the two of us! A pair! Take it as read,
old love, I thought I’d never see the time
The tangle of our jumpers in the line,
the battle for the blankets in our bed
confirm that I am yours, and you are mine.
So then, this is my pledge, my valentine:
my hand’s in yours for all that lies ahead.
Oh love, there’s never been a better time
now that I’m yours, and finally, you’re mine.
I’ll Wait For You
Posted in A Matched Pair, My Heart is Full, Soft and Tender, tagged always with me, love and friendship, Most true emotion on April 28, 2013 |
Love…
…is a mystery. Hindsight always seems so clear while what’s ahead appears to be obscured in fog. Time is slowly vaporizing like hazy mist in the morning sun and one day, I too, will evaporate back to where I once came from. If I am the first to go, I’ll wait for you there.
Dialogue from the movie “Moulin Rouge”
Listen
to my
heart,
can you
hear it
sing:
Come
back
to me
and
forgive
everything.
A Calm Blue Sky

Love…
…is a rising sun whose warmth every heart desires. For some it becomes injured by storms of difference. Others will know ups and downs like those on a partly cloudy day. And for a blessed few, love rises like a single cloud and rests in calm blue sky regardless of what happens.
American romantic fiction writer Nicholas Sparks
So it’s not
gonna be easy.
It’s gonna
be really hard.
We’re gonna
have to work
at this every day,
but I want to do that
because I want you.
I want all of you,
forever,
you and me,
every day…
As Long As We Live
Posted in Lasting love, Remembering, Strength of Love, tagged always with me, loving with all my senses, wanting to be around you on April 20, 2013 |
Love…
…keeps memories of you fresh in my heart. A man is lucky to feel even once how deeply I felt about you; still do. As long as we live I will never give up hope that one day we will be together again.
Taken from “Different Directions by Donna L. Jones
The

of
love
is
unexpected,
unexplainable,
undeniable,
and
unimaginable.
