feeling safe in love

The First You See

Waking before you and watching you sleep are precious times. In those moments the sweet child within you shows on the face of the beautiful woman you are. I love you for all you have been and yet will be.

From a poem found at http://poetrysync.blogspot.com/2013/07/
sleeping_women_B edi3tI turn around to face you,
hoping that it might seem,
that my face is
the first you see,
when you awaken
from your dream.
Your eyes lock onto mine,
and my skin
ignites with chills,
the love swimming in them,
is such an enormous thrill.
You smile,
and pull me closer,
and I can’t help
but blush.
Just the brush
of fingertips,
and I melt
within your touch.

Fireworks In Your Heart

My Love…
You and I are very different, yet exactly the same. How is it possible that two people so opposite match so well? There is no answer except together love works for us in a way I have hoped for all my life.

From “I Heart You, You Haunt Me” by Lisa Schroeder
heart_within_a_heart_by_VivaLaFrankieWhen you meet someone
so different from yourself,
in a good way,
you don’t even have to kiss
to have fireworks go off.
It’s like fireworks in your heart
all the time. I always wondered,
do opposites really attract?
Now I know for sure they do…
Alone, we were good.
Together, we were fantastic.

My Heart Is Reborn

Love…
…is never the same day-to-day, just as clouds are unique in every morning sky. Knowing this, and expecting it, makes my love for you ever new and exciting. Each morning I wake in your arms my heart is reborn.

From “Starlet’s Run” by Romance and fiction writer Carla Hanna
76705edit and filtered2I love you
when you’re happy.
I love you
when you’re sad.
I love you
if you’re angry,
And I love
you if you’re bad.
No matter
how you feel,
I love you
all the time.
Oh my sweet,
dear baby,
I love you
all the time.

Even With All the Doubts

My Darling…
I can be yours, always, through the sunny days and the dark ones; times of good health and bad; fun times and troubled ones. Be faithfully mine and I will never give you a reason to doubt my love.

trust but
love is
most strong
when you
learn to
trust even
with all
the doubts.

Another Twenty-Four Hours

My Darling…
To many it’s just another day, but for me it’s another twenty-four hours we get to be in love. Thank you for sharing the good times and being here with me in the difficult ones.

From “The Truth About Forever” by Sarah Dessen

never a time
or place
for true love.
It happens
accidentally,
in a heartbeat,
in a single
flashing,
throbbing
moment.

What’s In My Heart

My Darling…
Sometimes the urge comes to shout “I love you” as loud as I can over and over telling the world my feelings. What’s in my heart is so large how can anyone know the size of it unless I express it far beyond what is considered ‘normal’.

“Love Is a Fire that Burns Unseen” by Luís Vaz de Camões
576 LONGA wound
that aches yet isn’t felt,
An always
discontent contentment,
A pain
that rages without hurting,
A longing
for nothing but to long,
A loneliness
in the midst of people,
A never feeling
pleased when pleased,
A passion that gains
when lost in thought.
It’s being enslaved
of your own free will;
it’s counting
your defeat a victory…

A Beautiful Pattern

Sweetheart…
When I tell you I love you, I don’t say it out of habit. I say it to remind you that you’re the best thing that ever happened to me.

Taken from the poem “Best Thing…” by Javier Reyes
1309464616128_fDid you ever
have a dream
that was
so wonderful
you didn’t want
to wake up?
Loving you
feels like
that kind of dream,
only it’s real…
It’s made up
of everyday moments
all strung together
in a beautiful pattern,
one after the other.

A Hundred Hearts

My Darling…
For some, time makes their relationship seem ordinary. They stop doing the special things that caused them to fall in love. You have my promise that every day I’ll do my best to show you the depth of my love in all I do.

I Believe In You

Sweetheart…
Day by day, I become more sure of your love. Haunts from my past made it hard to believe you could want only me. Thank you for your unwavering patience, understanding and affection. I believe in you… in “US”… forever.

From “A Life for a Life” by Dinah Craik
d27349b1d263492e8c74fe941b301595editOh, the comfort –
the inexpressible comfort
of feeling safe with a person…
having neither to weigh thoughts
nor measure words,
but pouring them
all right out,
just as they are,
certain that a
faithful hand will…
keep what is worth keeping
blow the rest away…”

With All My Being

My Love…
Today is your birthday, the first of many I hope we get to share. Loving you and being loved in returned has made everything in my life more meaningful. I cherish you Darling and love you with all my being.

heart shaped cakeHey, birthday love,
I think of you
On days both
dark and sunny.
You bring me joy
in every thought,
My precious,
loving honey!

Each birthday

To say,
“I love just you!”
