My heart was broken, then shattered again and a third time, and more. I settled. I was hurt by staying where I shouldn’t have. I spent years alone. I learned. I healed. I grew. So by the time you came along I was ready to love and be loved.

…our deepest
heartbreak
is only meant
to help lead
us to the love
of our life
because
without it,
we might
never know
what that
actually
looks like.
Love is the longest four letter word in the English language. To understand, one need only consider the eternity it takes before a response after telling someone for the first time that you love him or her.
Canadian author and speech pathologist Vesna Bailey
…you are
my rainbow
to keep.
My eyes
will always
be watching
you;
never will
I lose
sight of
you.

My Dearest…
Miles apart, my mind wonders, “Does she really love me?” My heart answers quickly, “Yes, she does. She needs you and wants only you!”. Oh, what an adversary the thinking mind can be to a loving heart.

Were you to
be able to look
deep into
your eyes
and into your
amazing heart
the same way
that I do–
you would have
no doubt at all
just how
very much
I truly do
love you.
Sweetheart…
I spoke the words “I love you” before I said them to you. Falling for you has made me realize I expressed them then without full comprehension of their meaning. With you it feels like I have discovered love for the first time.
Singer, Songwriter, Poet and Author Oscar ‘Auliq-Ice’, Jr.
Love makes reality invisible
and no one around you
can understand why you do
the things you do,
for something that can
cause you so much pain.
Because you know
after all the fighting,
tears, and uncertainty,
it’s all worth it.
My love…
A thing, when broken and put back together is never as strong as before. People, on the other hand, become stronger when they recover from damage. And so it is with us: what was broken is now stronger than ever.
Taken from “Stronger Than Ever Before” by Imran Khan
So many problems,
loads of difficulties,
but your love
in my heart,
is stronger
than ever before.
The promise
I made with you,
that I will
never leave you,
that promise,
is stronger
than ever before.
My Love…
Don’t give up. Hang it there. I am in this relationship for keeps. Whatever it takes, I’ll be here. Please forgive my shortcomings and I will let yours fade. Let’s stay in love and be happy. Please…

Love
me
when
I
least
deserve
it,
because
that’s
when
I
really
need
it.
My Love…
My mind’s babbling is an over protective burden. It’s logic says our relationship is unlikely to survive long-term. But to those ramblings my heart and soul screams, “You’re wrong! We’re going to have a great life together.”

Someday, you’re going to meet someone who drives you mad, who you’re going to fight with and laugh with. Someone who you will share your deepest darkest secrets and past with, who you’ll do insane things for, someone, who is going to turn your life upside down. And when that time comes, don’t ever let them go and do everything in your power to keep them.
My Love…
There is space between us right now. Stepping back to take stock of things is healthy for both of us. Already I know my feelings for you are even deeper than I thought before. All I can do is hope you are making similar discoveries.
Lebanese artist, poet, and writer Kahlil Gibran
Let there be spaces
in your togetherness,
and let the winds of
the heavens dance
between you.
Love one another but
make not a bond of love:
Let it rather be a
moving sea between
the shores
of your souls.
My Darling…
I get afraid at times. I fret that I might love you too much and you might not love me enough. Regardless, I am facing my fears. They are about my past and not about you. With all the love I am capable my heart is open to you.
From the song “Living of Love” by The Avett Brothers
Your heart
says not again;
What kind
of mess
have you
got me in;
But when
the feelings
there,
It can lift
you up a
and take
you anywhere.
