Delicious Torture

I love…
…anticipating being with you.  There is no place I like to be more.  Time between nights spent together is delicious torture.  
 
 “Oh Beloved” by Mevlana Jalaluddin Rumi
Oh Beloved,
take me.
Liberate my soul.
Fill me with your love and
release me from the two worlds.
If I set my heart on anything but you
let fire burn me from inside.
Oh Beloved,
take away what I want.
Take away what I do.
Take away what I need.
Take away everything
that takes me from you.

I Know You Do

I love…
…how safe I feel with you.  I don’t wonder if you if you love me or not… I know you do. 
 
From “I Will Love You Forever”by Kayla
I love you so deeply,
I love you so much,
I love the sound of your voice,
And the way that we touch.
I love your warm smile,
And your kind, thoughtful way,
The joy that you bring,
To my life everyday.

Unwavering Confidence

I love…
…how you patiently wait for me when I am away.  Missing you when I am gone is balanced with unwavering confidence in my heart for the love we share.

Missing someone
Gets easier every day
Because
Even though it’s one day further
From the last time you saw each other,
It’s one day closer
To the next time you will.

A Way with Words

I love…
…the sweet emails, notes and cards you write to me.  You have a way with words that speaks strongly to my heart.
 
From “My Angel” by Sarah
Please
Stay with me
Forever.
Take my hand
And let’s be together.
Lets fly
Up to the heavens above
And show everyone
We are in love.

Never Before

I love…

…how being in with you is so magical, exciting, passionate, sweet, gentle, tender, kind, thrilling, delightful, wonderful, enchanting, breathtaking, charming, captivating, astonishing, exhilarating, moving:  a living dream.

Never Before by John Clare
I never was struck
Before that hour
With love
So sudden and so sweet,
Her face it bloomed
Like a sweet flower
And stole my heart
Away complete.

Give Me a Kiss

I love…
…how when you drive away you always throw me a kiss and I “catch it”.
 
From “To Anthea” by Robert Herrick
Give me a kiss, and to that kiss a score;
Then to that twenty,
Add a hundred more;
A thousand to that hundred;
So kiss on,
To make that thousand up a million;
Treble that million,
And when that is done,
Let’s kiss afresh, as when we first begun.

Merry Christmas My Love!

I love…
…the way you have helped restore the child within me so Christmas and all it means is vibrantly alive inside me this year.  
 
Writer Unattributed
On the eve of Christmas
surely I’ll have you near
I’ll wrap my arms around you
and hold my darling dear
I’ll kiss those lips of wine
as you stand ‘neath the mistletoe
My heart will follow you
everywhere you go
Merry Christmas My Love!

Adorable, Delightful and Untamed

I love…
…that you have such class, style and elegance yet at times when we are alone you’re my adorable, delightful and untamed “wild thing”.
 
Wild Nights by Emily Dickinson
Wild nights! Wild nights!
Were I with thee,
Wild nights should be
Our luxury!

Futile the winds
To a heart in port-
Done with the compass,
Done with the chart.

Rowing in Eden!
Ah! the sea!
Might I but moor
Tonight in thee!
