Unique Presence In A Room

Love…
…shows in the curve of your smile, in the shine in your eyes and in the way you move to be near. You have a special way about you that causes others to easily notice your unique brand of presence in a room.

English musician, singer and songwriter Florence Welch
in the darkenessA falling star
fell from your heart
and landed in my eyes.
I screamed aloud,
as it tore through them,
and now it’s left me blind.
I took the stars from my eyes,
and then I made a map.
And knew that somehow
I could find my way back.
Then I heard your heart beating,
you were in the darkness too.
So I stayed in the darkness with you.

Patiently Waits

Love…
…comes through the miles clearly when I’m away. It’s a soothing comfort that gives me strength to know someone cares, hopes for my safety and patiently waits for my return.

An anonymous quote by a writer unknown
Let
love
come
to you.
Be patient.
In
fairy tales
they don’t
find each
other until
the last page.

Echoes of Our Last Embrace

Love…
…retains its substance through distance and time when we are separated. To hear your voice I only have to close my eyes. Then I remember something sweet you said to me and feel the echoes of our last embrace.

American author and novelist Jacqueline Carey
There is no
fulfillment
that is
not made
sweeter
for the
prolonging
of desire.

The Spaces Between

Love…
…builds anticipation to get home and see you again. When a week has separated us, the first moment together again is sweet and magical.

From a song by “Owl City” (Adam Young)
… I look
at my hands
and feel sad.
Because
the spaces
between
my fingers
are right where
yours
fit perfectly.”

Hearts In the Same Place

Love…
…makes it plain that even though we are hundreds of miles apart, our hearts are in the same place: mine with you and yours with me.

Saying from an unknown source
Distance…
It’s just
a test
of how
far love
can travel.

Where Ever I Go

Love…
…is portable and my feelings for you go where ever I go. All I have to do is close my eyes and think of you, then I am where you are.

American Writer Richard David Bach
If
you
want
to
be
with
someone
you
love,
aren’t
you
already
there?

Until We Meet Again

Love…
…is thinking of you in the morning after I first get up and at night as I am going to sleep. It is a casual thought of you at lunch time and when driving home. At random moments all throughout my day you are on my mind, always hoping you are well and going good.

Writer and spiritual leader Rabbi Julius Gordon
So until we meet again,
I am thinking of you
Always;
I love you;
I wish you were here…
In my arms.

One Created Out of Two

Love…
…brings easy sensing of what one’s beloved feels. Happiness spills, sadness trickles, joy drips and grief drops from one person to the other as the border of separated emotions is no longer clear when “one” out of “two” is created.

Lebanese-American artist, poet, and writer Kahlil Gibran
Love one another,
but make not
a bond of love:
Let it rather be
a moving sea
between the shores
of your souls.

To Recognize Love

I love…
…that when I wake up in the morning a thought of you finds me soon after. Mentally I say “good morning” every time with hope the day is kind to you.

Contemporary Slovenian poet and artist Jaka Zeleznikar
It’s so easy,
To think about Love,
To Talk about Love,
To wish for Love,
But it’s not always easy,
To recognize Love,
Even when we hold it
In our hands.”
