I told her Id wait forever for her but that was before I found somebody else whod give me a ride home.

The future for me is already a thing of the past -You were my first love and you will be my last

He loved her for almost everything she was she decided that was enough to let him stay for a very long time.

Remember that the best relationship is one in which your love for each other exceeds your need for each other.

Sometimes you want to say I love you butYet the but takes away the I love you. In love their are no buts or ifs or when. Its just there and always. No beginning no end. Its the condition-less state of the heart. Not a feeling that comes and goes at the whim of the emotions. It is there in our heart a part of our hearteventually grafting itself into each limb and cell of our bodies. Love changes our brain the way we move and talk. Love lives in our spirit and graces us with its presence each day until death.To say I love you but. is to say I did not love you at all.I say this to you now I love you with no beginning no end. I love you as you have become an extra necessary organ in my body. I love you as only a girl could love a boy. Without fear. Without expectations. Wanting nothing in return except that you allow me to keep you here in my heart that I may always know your strength your eyes and your spirit that gave me freedom and let me fly.

There are some things after all that Sally Owens knows for certain Always throw spilled salt over your left shoulder. Keep rosemary by your garden gate. Add pepper to your mashed potatoes. Plant roses and lavender for luck. Fall in love whenever you can.

How many times have you tried to talk to someone about something that matters to you tried to get them to see it the way you do And how many of those times have ended with you feeling bitter resenting them for making you feel like your pain doesnt have any substance after allLike when youve split up with someone and you try to communicate the way you feel because you need to say the words need to feel that somebody understands just how pissed off and frightened you feel. The problem is they never do. Plenty more fish in the sea theyll say or Youre better off without them or Do you want some of these potato chips They never really understand because they havent been there every day every hour. They dont know the way things have been the way that its made you the way it has structured your world. Theyll never realise that someone who makes you feel bad may be the person you need most in the world. They dont understand the history the background dont know the pillars of memory that hold you up. Ultimately they dont know you well enough and they never can. Everyones alone in their world because everybodys life is different. You can send people letters and show them photos but they can never come to visit where you live.Unless you love them. And then they can burn it down.

Theyre in love. Fuck the war.

She leaned forward and caught at his hand pressing it between her own. The touch was like white fire through his veins. He could not feel her skin only the cloth of her gloves and yet it did not matter. You kindled me heap of ashes that I am into fire. He had wondered once why love was always phrased in terms of burning. The conflagration in his own veins now gave the answer.

It does good to no woman to be flattered by a man who does not intend to marry her and it is madness in all women to let a secret love kindle within them which if unreturned and unknown must devour the life that feeds it and if discovered and responded to must lead ignis-fatuus-like into miry wilds whence there is no extrication.
