My Love…
Every time you’ve been upset at me or I’ve been at you; every time I’ve hurt you or you’ve hurt me; every time some simple thing has come between us we’ve compromised, made up and our love has become stronger.
British playwright and novelist William Somerset Maugham
We are not
the same
persons
this year
as last;
nor are those
we love.
It is a happy
chance if we,
changing,
continue
to love
a changed
person.
My Sweet…
My mind does not understand, yet my soul knows. My senses are confused, yet my body is certain. My emotions are swirling, yet my heart is at peace. Such is the love that has descended upon me and taken over.
French romantic poet and novelist Victor Hugo
L
ove is
a portion
of the soul
itself,
and it is
of the
same nature
as the
celestial
breathing
of the
atmosphere
of paradise.
My Darling…
We are different, yet perfectly matched. Our dissimilarities are the sparks that vibrate around us making our lives exciting and never old. How we are alike is the glue that stabilizes our love so we can enjoy the glow and the glimmer.

You don’t get to choose,
you just fall in love.
And you get this person
who is all wrong
and all right at the same time.
And you know that
you love them so much
except sometimes
they just drive you
completely insane
and no one can explain it
and the reason it so confusing
is because it’s love.
But if love didn’t
have any challenges,
what would be the point?
My Love…
You have a colorful past and were known to be ‘wild’. It’s taken a while but I believe it when you say you’re past all that. The only way to know for sure is to believe in you and hope for the best. You’re worth the risk.
American novelist, short story writer and painter William S. Burroughs
There is no intensity
of love or feeling
that does not involve
the risk of
crippling hurt.
It is a duty to
take this risk,
to love and feel
without defense
or reserve.
My Love…
Damage can’t be undone and words spoken can not be retracted. However, I believe like wind strengthens the roots of a tree so it can stand strong, we’ll be stronger if we can let the misplaced emotions fade into the past.

Y
ou give
meaning
to my life.
I can not
imagine
living
without
you.
You fill
my heart
with
happiness
and
hope
for a
wonderful
future
together.
You are
the love
of my
life.
My Darling…
There are things about you I love that I wouldn’t find attractive in anyone else. Your nose is crooked. You’ve lost most of your hair. You snort when you laugh. Just as you are is the way I love you.
From the book “Different Directions…” by Donna L. Jones
Love is
when the
sound of
your partner’s
snoring lulls
you to sleep,
and it acts
as a reminder
that they are
there by
your side.
My Darling…
I accept you for all that you are and all that you are not. I see the goodness of your soul and know its darkness too. Inside out, outside in, top to bottom, fully and completely I love you just as you are.
American romantic fiction writer Nora Roberts
If you’re
looking for
the full deal,
the till-death deal,
then look
at me.
No one’s
ever going
to love you,
stick by you,
understand
how you work
the way I do.
My Darling…
All that I have been, am and will be is yours. All I ask is that you love me best in times when I deserve it least. No matter what I may say in anger, do in frustration or mistakenly behave, love me still and I will love you even more.
Father of the Indian independence movement, Mohandas Gandhi
I offer
you peace.
I offer
you love.
I offer
you friendship.
I see
your beauty.
I hear
your need.
I feel
your feelings..
Love…
…is worth everything. Put aside doubt and fear or it can’t get close. Only by fully opening yourself up to the possibility of heartbreak can love find a way into your heart and make a home there.
American fiction writer author and teacher Erica Jong
Love is everything
it’s cracked up to be.
That’s why people
are so cynical about it.
It really is
worth fighting for,
risking everything for.
And the trouble is,
if you don’t risk
everything,
you risk even more.
Love…
…is where almost all make mistakes before, if ever, getting it right. Some waste time in a bad relationships. Others marry the wrong person. Some learn what not to do by being mistreated… and so on. Such things are the threshing love does to make us ready.
From “Brushstrokes of a Gadfly” by E.A. Bucchianeri
Falling in love is very real,
but I used to shake my head
when people talked
about soul mates,
poor deluded individuals
grasping at some
supernatural ideal
not intended for mortals
but sounded pretty
in a poetry book.
Then, we met,
and everything changed,
the cynic has
become the converted,
the sceptic,
an ardent zealot.
