A Bitter Made Sweet

My Darling…
When distance separates us, even for a few days, my love for you is beckoned to the top of my heart. It’s then I am reminded my already deep affection for you is continually growing. Missing you is a bitter, made sweet.

An Overwhelming Conviction

My Dear…
There is no enchantment grander than what is happening between us. Like the poems, books, movies and songs all say… I am no longer fully myself without you. We’re falling in love. Nothing ever felt this good before.

From ‘Henrietta Temple’ by English aristocrat Benjamin Disraeli
Couple%20Dancing%20At%20Sunset EDIT LONGAmid the gloom
and travail of existence
suddenly to behold
a beautiful being,
and as instantaneously to
feel an overwhelming conviction
that with that fair form for ever
our destiny must be entwined;
that there is no more joy
than in her joy, no sorrow
but when she grieves;
that in her sigh of love,
in her smile of fondness,
hereafter all is bliss;
An immortal flame burns
in the breast of that man
who adores and is adored.

Constantly Between Us

My Darling…
The last three days were a test. We were together constantly for the longest time yet and it was all good. Whether we were busy doing something or just hanging out, love was constantly between us.

Spanish Golden Age poet and writer Pedro Calderon de la Barca

Who Are You?

My Darling…
Day by day I come to know you better. Don’t be afraid. Don’t hesitate. Trust me. All you have to do to let me fall deeper for you is unveil all you kept hidden from the others.

From song “Who Are You When I’m Not Looking” by Lee/Wiggins
823Who are you
when I’m not
around?
When the door
is locked
and the shades
are down?
Do you listen
to your music
quietly?
And when it feels
just right,
are you
thinkin’ of me?

Journey To My True Self

My Darling…
Your smile melts my heart and lets me see through these tear-stained eyes. You finally said “I love you”. All I could do was cry and struggle to say “about time. I love you too”.

Pastor and religion/spirituality writer Dr. Timothy Keller

My Honest Truth

My Darling…
Laying on the bed wrapped up in each other,”I love you” involuntarily fell out of my mouth. Your body tensed up. Thinking my words scared you I added “being with you”. Even though I tried to cover it up, in that instant loving you became my honest truth.

From the novel “Providence” by American writer  Jamie McGuire

So Much Better

My Dear…
The love I give you is short payment for all you have giveN me. I am so thankful for you. Its been years now. Life is good. We’re stronger than ever. We’re not the same two people as when we started. We’re so much better now.

What a Ride!

Love…
…is filled with surprises. I have no idea of when I went from simply beginning to fall in love with you to being head over heels, completely, absolutely and totally in love with you. Wow, what a ride!

From “Love Quotes for the Ages…” by American Writer Jarod Kintz

Made and Remade

Love…
…renews, reshapes and reforms within itself. Like skin sloughs off a human body and is ever being made new, the heart does likewise with its precious contents. Love must be made and remade or else it starts to wither and die.

Fired By A Passion New

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.
