Love…
…answers no questions. Love simply “is”. It would not exist between us if we had not taken the time to know each other to the bone. In each discovery of one another there existed the possibility of feast or famine.
From “The Genius and the Goddess” by English writer Aldous Huxley
Why do
you love
the woman
you’re in
love with?
Because she is.
And that,
after all,
is God’s own
definition
of Himself;
I am that I am.
The girl is
who she is.
Love…
…caught me by surprise when it arrived; when you arrived. From the first time we met I hoped we’d fall in love. I can’t remember life without you. It feels like I have always known you.
American poet, short story writer and novelist X. Williamson
I could
recognize
his soul
in mine
as much as
he could
find me
in his.
Our sole
existences
seemed to
have been
for this very
moment
when nothing
else mattered.
Love…
…drove me crazy when I began to fall for you. I had trouble getting to sleep, but could not wait to dream of us each night. Back then even a few days of not seeing you was torture. You became the love of my life.
From “Peony in Love” by American novelist Lisa See
He was in
my hair,
my eyes,
my fingers,
my heart.
I day-dreamed
about what he
was doing,
thinking,
seeing,
smelling,
feeling.
I could
not eat
for thoughts
of him.
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
I am
approximately
96.694444%
in
love
with
you.
Of
course,
that’s
just
a
rough
estimate.
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.
From “The Lovely Bones” by American Novelist Alice Sebold
I
fell
in
love
with
you
again
while
you
were
away…
Love…
…gives me hope. I know the one my heart will find peace with is out there; maybe a stranger or someone I already know. Some way, some how, some day, some where, you and I will be together.
From “Love, Stargirl” by American novelist Jerry Spinelli
You be you
and I’ll be me…
and let’s trust
the future
to tomorrow.
Let the stars
keep track of us.
Let us ride
our own orbits
and trust that
they will meet.
May our reunion
be not a finding
but a sweet
collision
of destinies!
Love…
…needs two. No matter how deeply one person feels about another, it is for naught unless the sentiments are returned in kind. Unrequited love is the all too common state that makes true love so sought after and rare.
American romance and fantasy author Phyllis Christine Cast (P.C. Cast)
True love
is not
a potion
one person
can swallow
and another
refuse to drink.
It happens
only when
the souls
of two join
together
to form
one.
Love…
…is intertwined with life like an equation is to math: a reaction is to chemistry: like color is to art: like you are with me. It is there you will stay, bound irretrievably with my heart for all time.
From “Metamorphoses” by playwright/director Mary Zimmerman
Let me
die the
moment
my love
dies.
Let me
not outlive
my own
capacity
to love.
Let me
die
still
loving,
and so,
never
die.
Love…
…is a little crazy. Falling in love is like jumping off a high cliff. Your brain tells you it is not a good idea, but your heart tells you that you can fly.
From “Bel Canto” by American writer Ann Patchett
Love
was
action.
It
came
to you.
It
was
not
a
choice.
Love…
…gives me patient strength. I know you have things to work through and commitments to keep. No matter; I’ll keep waiting for you, hoping for ‘some day’. I have no choice. I’m so in love with you my heart will allow nothing else.
By James Frey/Jobie Hughes under pseudonym ‘Pittacus Lore’
I don’t
know where
you have to go
or what you
have to do,
but I’ll wait
for you..
Every bit
of my heart
belongs to you,
whether
you ask for it
or not.”
