Not Only…

Love…
…is magic. Someone asked me what the happiest day of my life was. I closed my eyes and felt a joyful tear run down my face as I thought back to the day when you first told me you loved me.

19th Century Victorian poet Elizabeth Barrett Browning
Its-My-Love-Story_20013EDIT2I love you
not only for
what you are,
but for what
I am when
I am with you.
I love you
not only for
what you
have made
of yourself,
but for
what you
are making
of me.

Only Sensible Way to Love

Love…
…can be unavoidably insane when the emotion is deep and true. To carry a flame for a person one hasn’t seen in years and years is crazy. But I’d rather be thought an unwise and silly fool than to give up the love in my heart I carry for you.

French playwright, novelist, and screenwriter Françoise Sagan

loved
to the point
of madness;
that which
is called
madness;
that which
to me,
is the only
sensible way
to love.

When You’re Away

Love…
…fills me when a man walks by wearing your cologne. I think of that scent as yours alone and never quite right on anyone else. Did you know when you’re away I go to sleep on your pillow so I can smell you?

American writer, lecturer, and poet Ralph Waldo Emerson

A Melody From Living

Love…
…makes a melody from living: holding hands; watching a sunset, comforting each other; eye contact; waking in the morning; a kiss before we part and so much more. All play together to create the harmony that is our love.

American clergyman, social reformer and writer Henry Ward Beecher

all
the
music
that
reached
farthest
into
heaven,
it is the
beating of
a loving heart.

Grateful Beyond Words

Love…
…allowed me to see how unique and special you are; to look inside your heart and know I am safe. Loving you and you loving me has taught what trust, tenderness and true love is. I am grateful beyond words.

French author and Nobel Prize in Literature. Francois Mauriac

To Love Being Loved

Love…
… taught me to love myself. I always thought I needed to be more of this or less of that, but your love is accepting of me just as I am. You’ve helped me become a better man; more confident, self-assured and capable of loving.

American author, motivational speaker and a professor Leo F. Buscaglia

relationship
is one in which
the loved one
is free
to be himself,
to laugh with me,
but never at me;
to cry with me,
but never
because of me;
to love life,
to love himself,
to love being loved

I Knew It

Love…
…came not because of one thing, but because of many. In coming to know you I have discovered so much I like; so much to be glad, even joyful about. If I had custom made you for me, I could not have done a better job.

Spoken by Tom Hanks in the movie “Sleepless In Seattle”

things

together…
and
I knew it.

Art of Love

Love…
…has painted a masterpiece on my heart. Down to the smallest detail, cupid’s artistry is engraved upon my soul. All who witness you and I together know we are the art of love at its best.

French writer, historian and philosopher Voltaire

Whispering Your Name

Love…
…began whispering your name to my heart soon after we first met. At first I did not listen, but in time the voice grew deep and strong, just like how I love you. Maybe one day we will be together.

Author of Tao Te Ching and philosopher of ancient China Lao Tzu

Misty Rains Coming Softly

Love…
……overflows and pours out from me. My happiness is evident to anyone. I am profoundly and completely in love. After our years together, what I feel for you grows deeper and richer with each passing day.

Malagasy proverb from the island of Madagascar
px00195-9jpg-c170fbad5ca15d9cLet your
love
be
like
the
misty
rains,
coming
softly,
but
flooding
the
river.
