that which is called madness,
that which to me,
is the only sensible way to love.
You don't die of a broken heart, you just wish you did
—Marilyn Peterson
Love is a word that blind your eyes,
Love is a fog that cloud your mind,
It is hammer that hack you to pieces,
So that you will never be whole again."
By Wilson Tse“There is one pain I often feel,
which you’ll never know.
It’s caused by absence of you.”
You can't make a heart love somebody
You can lead a heart to love,
But you can't make it fall."
The way to love anything is to realize that it might be lost.
,
Better never to have met you
In my dream
Than to wake and reach
For hands that are not there.
- Otomo No Yakamochi
I have loved to the point of madness;
that which is called madness,
that which to me,
is the only sensible way to love.
- F. Sagan
Love without reason lasts the longest.
Making love with you
Is like drinking sea water.
The more I drink
The thirstier I become,
Until nothing can slake my thirst
But to drink the entire sea.
- Marichiko
Loving is so short and forgeting so long.
- Pablo Neruda
The heart has its reasons that reason cannot know.
- Pascal
once he drew with one long kiss my whole soul
through my lips as sunlight drinketh dew.
- Alfred, Lord Tennyson
If you say my eyes are beautiful,
it's because they're looking at you.
If you can't hear my heartbeat, you aren't close enough.
Seduce my mind and you can have my body,
find my soul and I'm yours forever.
If I had a flower for every time I thought of you,
I could walk through my garden forever.
-Kindra Piturro
I've learned that you cannot make someone love you. All you can do is
be someone who can be loved. The rest is up to
them.
A friend is someone who understands your past, believes in your future, and accepts you just the way you are.
"Love has no other desire but to fulfull itself.
To melt and be like a running brook
that sings its melody to the night.
To wake at dawn with a winged heart
and give thanks for another day of loving."
Kahlil Gibran (1883-1931)
And so I have come to doubt
All that I once held as true.
I stand alone without beliefs
The only truth I know is you." -Simon&Garfunkel
Hate has a reason for everything.
But love is unreasonable.
- V. Raiuhes Ahaefvthe
"So slide back down and close your eyes, sleep a while you must be tired,
Cause every night I fall, Every night I call your name..."
I am insane and you are my insanity
A true friend walks in when the world walks out.
Don't walk behind me, I might not lead. Don't walk before me, I might
not follow.
Just walk beside me and be my friend.
I believe that if i should die,
and you were to walk near my grave,
from the very depths of the earth
I would hear your footsteps.
- - - -Benito Perez Galdos
I shall go the way of the open sea,
To the lands I knew before you came,
And the cool ocean breezes shall blow from me
The memory of your name.
- - - -Laurence Hope
I want to die while you love me,
While yet you hold me fair,
While laughter lies upon my lips,
And lights are in my hair.
- - - - Georgia Douglas Johnson
If I could take your troubles
I would toss them into the sea,
But all these things I'm finding
Are impossible for me.
I cannot build a mountain
Or catch a rainbow fair,
But let me be what I know best,
A friend that is always there.
- - - -Khahlil Gibran "A True Friend"
Love me sweet
With all thou art
Feeling, thinking, seeing;
Love me in the
Lightest part,
Love me in full
Being.
- - - - Elizabeth Barrett Browning
Music I heard with you was more than music,
And bread I broke with you was more than bread.
Now that I am without you, all is so desolate;
And all that once was so beautiful is dead.
- - - -Conrad Aiken "Bread and Music"
Love rules the court, the camp, the grove,
And men below, and saints above:
For love is heaven, and heaven is love.
- - - -Walter Scott
She walks in beauty, like the night
Of cloudless climes and starry skies;
And all that's best of dark and bright
Meet in her aspect and her eyes:
Thus mellow'd to that tender light
Which heaven to gaudy day denies.
- - - -Lord Byron "She Walks in Beauty"
I always say..love me, accept me..as I will you
It is the heart afraid of breaking
that never learns to dance.
It is the dream afraid of waking
that never takes a chance.
It is the one who won't be taken
who cannot seem to give.
And the soul afraid of dying
that never learns to live.
-Bette Midler, The Rose
"A part of you has grown in me. And so you see, it's you and me together
forever and never apart, maybe in
distance, but never in heart."
"I think we dream so we don't have to be apart so long. If we're in
each others dreams, we can be together all
the time."
You may only be one person to the world but you may also be the world to one person."
Love is a dream that comes alive when we meet."
HE stood among a crowd at Dromahair;
His heart hung all upon a silken dress,
And he had known at last some tenderness,
Before earth took him to her stony care;
Yeats
I have come to bury Love
Beneath a tree,
In the forest tall and black
Where none can see.
I shall put no flowers at his head,
Nor stone at his feet,
For the mouth I loved so much
Was bittersweet.
I shall go no more to his grave,
For the woods are cold.
I shall gather as much of joy
As my hands can hold.
I shall stay all day in the sun
Where the wide winds blow, --
But oh, I shall cry at night
When none will know.
WERE you but lying cold and dead,
And lights were paling out of the West,
You would come hither, and bend your head,
And I would lay my head on your breast;
And you would murmur tender words,
Forgiving me, because you were dead:
Nor would you rise and hasten away,
Though you have the will of the wild birds,
But know your hair was bound and wound
About the stars and moon and sun:
O would, beloved, that you lay
Under the dock-leaves in the ground,
While lights were paling one by one.
Yeats
Without warning
as a whirlwind
swoops on an oak
Love shakes my heart
Love is friendship set on fire.
There are many things in life that will catch your eye, but only a few
will catch your heart...
pursue those.
"Im so tired, but I cant sleep...standing on the edge of something much
too deep...funny how I
feel so much but cannot say a word...we are screaming
inside, oh, but we can't be heard...so
afraid to love you, more afraid to lose...clinging to
a past that doesn't let me choose"
I know better,
Than those who come,Telling stories of wonder,
And fashionable delights. 
Saying they'll love you,
For what you are,
Yet changing you, minutely,
Behind your back.
If I could be anything in the world I would want to be a teardrop because
I would be born in your eyes, live on your
cheeks, and die on your lips."
Love come out of heaven unasked and unsought. Pearl S. Buck
To love someone means to see him as God intended him. Feodor Dostoevsky
Love is perhaps the only glimpse we are permitted of eternity. Helen Hayes
To fall in love is easy, even to remain in it is not difficult; our
human loneliness is cause enough. But it is a hard quest worth
making to find a comrade through whose steady presence one becomes
steadily the person one desires to be.
Anna Louise Strong
Compassion is the sometimes fatal capacity for feeling what
it's like to live inside somebody else's skin. It is the knowledge
that
there can never be peace and joy for me until there is peace and joy
for
you, too." Frederick Beuchner, "Wishful Thinking"
Love is like a rose---it can be oh so beautiful,
yet prick the heart so deep.
The path that leads to happiness so narrow that two can't
walk on it unless they become one.

It is by loving and by being loved that one can come nearest
to the soul of another.
"Within you, I lose myself, without you, I find myself, searching to be lost again."
So, fall asleep love, loved by me....for I know love, I am loved by
thee."
Robert Browning
"I walk alone through life's dark night, you are my candle, my shining light!"
"Love is the blood of the heart, and the drink of the soul."
There is a place in my heart
With your name etched deep
A sweet special place
Where my memories I keep.
"Something in your eyes captured my soul, and every night I see you in my dreams. You're all I know. I can't let go."
"Emptiness isn't lonliness, it's the missing of you."
You may hold my hand for a while, but you hold my heart forever."
They look down on me with disdain,
They think me unable to love.
But mine for you will never wane,
As does the moon above;
I've got to escape despair
Caus'd by my longing for thee
And my feelings still to bare.
But why can't it be?
Thy sweet smile can't be forgotten
Nor can thy loyal looking eyes.
By my tears the ground's now sodden
And there my pride now lies;
Here I stand in full disgrace
Waiting for you to free me
By a warmhearted embrace.
But why can't it be?
The way to your heart is a maze
I think I'm lost forever.
When I look into your eyes, I'm in a daze
You are the perfect lover.
The heart has its reasons, which reason does not know.

Blaise Pascal

you."---Tinkerbell

new,

you."

and I don't want the world to see me...
'cuz I don't think they'd understand..
When everything's made to be broken..
I just want you to know who I am..
I want to live in your eyes, die in your arms, and be buried in your heart."
"I understand that with love comes pain, but why did I have to love so much?"
Give me a whisper, give me a sigh,
give me a kiss before you tell me goodbye;
And please remember, that I never lied..
and please remember how i felt inside."
Pardon me, have you
seen my
heart? I was going to give it to you... but I think perhaps you have stolen
it away."
kisses you without restraint ...unchained
Holding you, I held everything
If I could reach

You don't die of a broken heart, you only wish you did.
How can anyone love me when I don't even love myself-mine
Thinking of you as become my favorite activity. Missing you, my
worst
heartache.
When falling in love, some lose their head, others lose their heart.
No one has ever loved anyone
the way everyone wants to be loved
It is in the touching of one with another
that we become most fully ourselves
You will never know true happiness
until you have truly loved,
and you will never understand
what pain really is
until you have lost it.
This thing and you
shall never part,
for the gift I give you,
is all of my heart
Love is patient. Love is kind.
It does not envy. It does not boast.
It is not proud. It is not rude.
It is not self-seeking. It is not easily angered.
It keeps no record of wrong doing.
It does not delight in evil, but rejoices in the truth.
It always protects, trusts, hopes, perseveres
True love cannot be found where it truly does not exist,
nor can it be hidden where it truly does
Love that we can not have
is the one that lasts the longest,
hurts the deepest
and feels the strongest
I love thee, I love but thee
With a love that shall not die
Till the sun grows cold
And the stars grow old.
if you should die before me,
ask if you could bring a friend...
Never love with all your heart
it only ends in aching.
Your voice makes me tremble inside
and your smile is an invitation
for my imagination to go wild
To love a person is to learn the song that is in their heart,
and to sing it to them when they have forgotten
Like thunder needs rain
Like the preacher needs pain
Like tongues of flames
Like a blindman's cane
Like a needle in the vain
Like someone to blame
Like a thought unchained
Like a runaway train
I NEED YOUR LOVE
How is it that something as big as the earth
can spin in perfect harmony on its axis,
while something as small as my heart
can go wildly out of control.
How can this be
when they are both in God's control?
If I go away
What would still remain of me?
The ghost within your eyes?
The whisper in your sighs?
You see...Believe
And I'm always there
And we ourselves shall be loved for a while and forgotten. But the love
will have
been enough; all those impulses of love return to the love that made them.
Even
memory is not necessary for love. There is a land of the living and a land
of the
dead, and the bridge is love, the only survival, the only meaning."
Love me when I least deserve it, because that's when I really need it.
—Swedish proverb.
"You can't make a heart love somebody,
You can lead a heart to love,
But you can't make it fall."
You may not have me now, you may never have me again, but you will always have my heart."
"Love is a word that blind your eyes,
Love is a fog that cloud your mind,
It is hammer that hack you to pieces,
So that you will never be whole again."
By Wilson Tse
