We are a story told long ago to heart and soul. A couple of chapters is all we wrote, though, there is the most unbridled love ever I allowed myself. In that innocence of youth there was such fire, such stars and such passion; never to be forgotten, forevermore.
Journalist and Best Selling Author, Aurora Rose Reynolds
I’m
surprised
that
this
place
didn’t
catch
fire
when
you
kissed
me.
The experience of my heart urges caution. My memory says be careful. My spirit says “lean in” and let yourself be known. I hesitate. Yet there is something about you that attracts me like iron to a magnet.
German-born poet, novelist, and painter Hermann Karl Hesse
Love must
have
the strength
to become
certain
within
itself.
Then it
ceases
merely
to be
attracted
and begins
to attract.
I am too old to find interest solely in the surface and shell of you. With your loving heart, truthful soul, sparkling eyes and radiant smile I am mesmerized. It is within your imperfect perfection that I see the greatest beauty in you.
Inspirational author and positivity originator, Shannon L. Alder
Your soulmate
wasn’t suppose
to be perfect.
You were meant
to see the cracks
in her soul
and fill them
with what you
have and she
was meant
to see yours.
Together you
would be
complete
Sweet One…
Could you be her; “the one” for the rest of my life? Why do I feel this strong pull toward someone I barely know? I am enticed by simply the possibility. Just looking at your photo I find magic in your smile and adventure in your eyes.
From the book “Eat, Pray, Love” by Elizabeth Gilbert
Happiness is the consequence
of personal effort.
You fight for it,
strive for it,
insist upon it,
and sometimes even travel
around the world looking for it.
You have to participate relentlessly
in the manifestations
of your own blessings.
And once you have achieved
a state of happiness, you must never
become lax about maintaining it.
You must make a mighty effort
to keep swimming upward
into that happiness forever,
to stay afloat on top of it.”
My Love…
You were in boyhood dreams. As a teenager I imagined you until you seemed real. Long before we saw each other for the first time, I met you in the fantasies of a man. I’ve been waiting for you for so long…
From “The History of Love: A Novel ” by Nicole Krauss
Maybe the first time
you saw her you were ten.
She was standing
in the sun scratching her legs.
Or tracing letters
in the dirt with a stick.
Her hair was being pulled.
Or she was
pulling someone’s hair.
And a part of you
was drawn to her,
and a part of you resisted–
wanting to ride off
on your bicycle,
kick a stone,
remain uncomplicated.
In the same breath you felt
the strength of a man,
and a self-pity that made you
feel small and hurt.
Part of you thought:
Please don’t look at me.
If you don’t,
I can still turn away.
And part of you thought:
Look at me.
Love…
…arrives most assuredly when it is unexpected. It is wise to give up searching for it so love can arrive in its own good time.
From the poem “I Finally Found Someone” by Jesse DeLance Sutton
After all
those lonely
years
and so many
nights of
heartache
and tears,
you are
finally here,
and I will
cherish
your love
forever
my dear.
My Darling…
Yesterday you texted “I love you more today than yesterday”. Those words mirror how I feel about you. What a delightful surprise our chance meeting turned into: a growing love that seems unstoppable.

There’s nothing
I would rather do,
than to grow old
in love with you,
the fun that being
with you brings,
our memories
made of little things,
the talks we have,
the jokes we share,
the hugs, the kisses
here and there…
what better reason
could there be,
to ask you to grow old
in love with me.
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
I would love
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.
My Darling…
My life has been irrevocably changed. Where there was disbelief is now faith. Where hope was lacking optimism now lives. Where melancholy resided I am filled with joy. Happiness has found me.
By a author unknown/anonymous
Find someone
who isn’t afraid
to admit that
they miss you.
Someone who
knows that you’re
not perfect,
but treats you
as if you are.
Someone whose
biggest fear
is losing you.
One who gives
their heart
completely.
Someone who
says I love you
and means it.
My Love…
Falling for you has been a slow fall into joy. I was a contented person when we met, but with you I am learning about life at a whole new level. I’ve thrown caution to the wind and am yours more completely than I imagined possible.
British philosopher, mathematician and historian Bertrand Russell
Of
all
forms
of
caution;
caution
in
love
is
perhaps
the
most
fatal
to
true
happiness.
