Gentle Nudging at My Soul

I love…
…feeling romance in my heart again. It has touched me deeply with its sparkle of hope. Come what may I am grateful to know I still have the ability to fall in love. Thank you for showing me how.

From “Falling In Love Again’ by Alek House
writing-love-edit1I’d crept into the deepest darkest place,
Where life and love no longer saw my face.
My heart was cold, my very soul was dead.
My only solace, memories in my head.
You came to me and caught me unaware,
And unprepared, I fell into your lair.
I struggled as you crawled into my mind,
Afraid of what your loving me might find.
And as I stayed resistant to your touch
You never turned away, instead t’was such
an oh so gentle nudging at my soul
that woke me with your ever sweet cajole.

More than Yesterday

Sweetheart…
Our love is safe when we are apart. Distance fashions the heart to be stronger when the love contained therein is real and true. I love you more than yesterday, but not as much as tomorrow.

separates two hearts
that really care,
for our memories
span the miles
and in seconds
we are there.
But whenever
I start feeling sad,
because I miss you,
I remind myself
how lucky I am
to have someone
so special to miss.

What You’ve Given Me

My Darling…
With a love new like I have felt for no other you are etched in my heart. Humbly I pray any challenges to our love will be vanquished so in a life together we can give the world hope with our tender joy, fiery passion and unbreakable bond.

By American novelist, screenwriter and producer Nicholas Sparks

is the kind
that awakens

and makes
us reach
for more,
that plants
a fire
in our hearts
and brings peace
to our minds.
And that’s what
you’ve given me.

Worth the Risk

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
I-believe-in-youThere 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.

Weak In the Knees

My Darling…
It’s been months now and I still get excited to the point of befuddlement each time we are first together again. I am amazed by the uniqueness of you and even more so that we are falling deeper and deeper for each other.

From “Love Language” by Tyler Knott Gregson

to say
that you
make me
weak
in the knees
but to be
quite upfront
and completely
truthful,
you
make my body
forget
it has knees
at all.

Holiness of the Hearts Affections

My Darling…
To love is meaningful. To be loved means more. But to be loved by the person I love brings everything: joy, understanding, forgiveness, passion, friendship, tenderness and devotion.

holiness
of the
heart’s

A Secret

My Love…
Our eyes connecting for only a moment gives my mind a hundred reasons to believe in the future. A touch of your hand lights up my physical being to a level beyond words. Love has found me. I had given up it ever could again.

As Long…

My Dearest…
As long as you want me I will faithfully be by your side. As long as you need me I will always gladly be close by. As long as the sun rises and the wind blows I will love you.

With All I Am

Sweetheart…
I woke this morning with you feeling content and grateful. Never before have I felt more happy. It does not matter to me that the odds are against us making it. I don’t care what others think or say. I love you with all I am.

From the 1992 movie “The Cutting Edge”

Fade Into the Past

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.
