Favorite Quotes about Love

“Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life...You give them a piece of you. They didn't ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so simple a phrase like 'maybe we should be just friends' turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It's a soul-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain. I hate love.”
~Neil Gaiman

"Love is… born with the pleasure of looking at each other; it is fed with the necessity of seeing each other; it is concluded with the impossibility of separation"

~Anonymous

"To love means to commit oneself without guarantee, to give oneself completely in the hope that our love will produce love in the loved person"

love

Baby when I look at you I see the reflection of who I am and who I want to be

living in you is living in a dream and fantasy world

where time holds no meaning and the moments pass away like the sighs of life's breath

holding no meaning and each one no more significant than the last

but alas my spirit cries out for more yearns for more

ever seeking to posses you and take you captive to

enchant my way into your essence as you've enchanted your way into mine

I LOVE YOU
