But to see her was to love her, love but her,
and love her forever
Robert Burns
Come when my heart is full of grief, Or when my
heart is merry; Come with the falling of the leaf, or with the
reddening cherry
Paul Laurence Dunbar
Look not in my eyes, for fear
They mirror true the sight I see, And there you find your face too
clear, And love it and be lost like me
A. E. Housman
Thou wert my joy in every spot, My
theme in every song, And when I saw a stranger face Where beauty
held the claim, I gave it like a secret grace The being of thy
name. And all the charms of a face or voice Which I in
others see Are but the recollected choice Of what I felt for thee
John Clare
What love is, if though wouldst be
taught, Thy heart must teach along-, two souls with but a single
thought, Two hearts that beat as one
Friedrich Halm
Just because I love you- That's
reason why. My heart's a fluttering aspen leaf, When you
pass by.
Langston Hughes
O my luve's like a red, red rose.
That's newly sprung in June; O my luve's like a melodie That's
sweetly play'd in tune. As fair art thou, my bonnie lass, So
deep in luve am I; And I will love thee still, my Dear, Till a'
the seas gang dry. Till a' the seas gang dry, my Dear, and
the rocks melt wi' th the sun: I will luve thee still, my Dear,
While the sands o' life shall run. And fare thee weel my
only Luve! And fare thee weel a while! And I will come gain,
my Luve, Tho' it were ten thousand mile!
Robert Burns
Fame, wealth, and honor! What are you to Love?
Alexander Pope
Were I as base as is the lowly plain,
And you, my Love, as high as heaven above,
Yet should the thoughts of me, your humble
swain,
Ascend to heaven in honor of my love.
Were I as high as heaven above plain,
And you, my Love, as humble and as low
As are the deepest bottoms of the main,
Wheresoe'er you were, with you my love shouuld
go.
Were you the earth, dear Love, and I the skies,
My love should shine on you like to the sun,
And look upon you with ten thousand eyes
Till heaven waxed blind, and till the world
were dun.
Wheresoe'er I am, below, or else above you,
Wheresoe'er you are, my heart shall truly love
you.
Joshua Sylvester
We cannot kindle when
we will
The fire which in the heart resides;
The spirit bloweth and is still,
In mystery our soul abides.
Matthew Arnold
Our state cannot be severed, we are
one, one flesh; to lose thee were to lose myself
John Milton
So shall a friendship fill each
heart, with perfume sweet as roses are, That even though we be
apart, We'll scent the fragrance from afar.
Georgia McCoy
If a thing loves, it is infinite
William Blake
Kisses are better fate than wisdom
E. E. Cummings
