true-love

Whoever thought up the phrase __bsence makes the heart grow founder_ was an idiot.Absence makes a bitch go crazy. -Elli, While Shea is Away

He__ only ever seen her twice, only talked to her once, but as he now gazed upon her, he realized that he__ missed her all day long.

We choose those we like; with those we love, we have no say in the matter.

Love could end even though it was true love. Love could be false love, or the wrong kind of love, or love that came at the wrong time to the right people, or at the right time to the wrong people.

I guess I should have known back then. All the guys after him only left flesh wounds. Benjamin managed to get into my bones on day one.

He has never understood that sometimes real love requires one to let the beloved go. Probably he never will.

Sachin has infinite capacity for taking pains and still making runs.

A Maddox boy will take you all the way to the edge, but if you go with him, he__l follow you anywhere_

December 27, 11:00 p.m.My Dear America,I__e never written a love letter, so forgive me if I fail now. . . .The simple thing would be to say that I love you. But, in truth, it__ so much more than that. I want you, America. I need you.I__e held back so much from you out of fear. I__ afraid that if I show you everything at once, it will overwhelm you, and you__l run away. I__ afraid that somewhere in the back of your heart is a love for someone else that will never die. I__ afraid that I will make a mistake again, something so huge that you retreat into that silent world of yours. No scolding from a tutor, no lashing from my father, no isolation in my youth has ever hurt me so much as you separating yourself from me.I keep thinking that it__ there, waiting to come back and strike me. So I__e held on to all my options, fearing that the moment I wipe them away, you will be standing there with your arms closed, happy to be my friend but unable to be my equal, my queen, my wife.And for you to be my wife is all I want in the world. I love you. I was afraid to admit it for a long time, but I know it now.I would never rejoice in the loss of your father, the sadness you__e felt since he passed, or the emptiness I__e experienced since you left. But I__ so grateful that you had to go. I__ not sure how long it would have taken for me to figure this out if I hadn__ had to start trying to imagine a life without you. I know now, with absolute certainty, that is nothing I want.I wish I was as true an artist as you so that I could find a way to tell you what you__e become to me. America, my love, you are sunlight falling through trees. You are laughter that breaks through sadness. You are the breeze on a too-warm day. You are clarity in the midst of confusion.You are not the world, but you are everything that makes the world good. Without you, my life would still exist, but that__ all it would manage to do.You said that to get things right one of us would have to take a leap of faith. I think I__e discovered the canyon that must be leaped, and I hope to find you waiting for me on the other side.I love you, America.Yours forever,Maxon

Let me be your shield, let me be your wall. I'll always be there, even when you fall!

Wyatt didn't want it, but without his permission, his heart started beating again. It had always beat for Tabitha.

How can you regret never having found true love? That's like saying you regret not being born a genius. People don't have control over such things. It either happens or it doesn't. It's a gift - a present that most never get. It's more like a miracle, really, when you think of it. I mean, first you have to find that person, and then you have to get to know them to realize just what they mean to you - that right there is ridiculously difficult. Then... then that person has to feel the same way about you. It's like searching for a specific snowflake, and even if you manage to find it, that's not good enough. You still have to find its matching pair. What are the odds?

I love youas much as the oceankisses the shoreno matter how many timesit is sent away.

Wait for the man who will do anything to be your everything. And will continue to do it after he has your heart.

making the most of every second, because seconds became minute sand minutes became precious when life could be taken in less than a breath.

Love is a word that is overused these days, due to other lesser feelings often being mistaken for it. Infatuation, admiration, and attraction can pose as love, and can sometimes overwhelm us and fool us into thinking that we have found the real thing when we haven't. Those other feelings may be pleasant for a time, but they are not real love. Real love is rare. It's something that, quite honestly, I believe very few people ever truly experience.

A storm was coming; you could feel it in the air, chill wind was cutting through the thickest coat and there was a faint wetness in the air that was touching the skin if turned towards the storm. Mark looked at the sky above the ocean. The sky was getting darker it no longer felt like midday, the storm moved the clock forward and it felt more like the beginnings of sunset. With lightening flashes every few minutes, the sky would light up all of a sudden. It was magnificent, breathtaking and even life taking.

To know true love, even though it was impossible to keep, had finally cracked her heart open enough to let someone else in.
