The best thing that’s ever happened to me is still happening.

I’ve forever wanted a woman who loves like a soldier and fights like a poet. Always with unfailing faithfulness, always for the yearning in her heart.

I don’t understand how in my parents’ age, it was ’til death do us part, and in mine it’s ’til cheating do us part, ’til lying do us part, ’til chemistry do us part, ’til disagreements do us part, ’til boredom do us part, ’til cowardice do us part. I just want what my parents have, that part.

I was a poem, she was a melody, songs emerged between us.

If you can’t hurt with me, don’t flirt with me.

Don’t confuse feelings with facts and don’t ignore facts when they come as feelings.

My father, soft as rainclouds, my mother, hard as hail, prepared me to take the world by storm.

I was a poem, she was a melody, songs emerged between us.

To live is like to love – all reason is against it, and all healthy instinct for it.

Love is what we’re born with. Fear is what we learned here.

Doctoring her seemed to her as absurd as putting together the pieces of a broken vase. Her heart was broken. Why would they try to cure her with pills and powders?

My wish for us all is to love and adore ourselves just as much as we do everyone else!

Love is a promise, love is a souvenir, once given never forgotten, never let it disappear.

Drownin’ in the sea of love where everyone would love to drown.

Whoso loves, believes the impossible.

You do not have to be good. You do not have to walk on your knees for a hundred miles through the desert repenting. You only have to let the soft animal of your body love what it loves.

The perfect love affair is one which is conducted entirely by post.

We need to make love great again because black lives do matter, because all lives do matter.

Real love is freedom, and this is what you’ve been given by the Creator – the freedom to love and to choose your own path.

Absence makes the heart grow fonder.

A happy love needs to be reciprocated.
