I think about.....

I think about how there are certain people who come into your life and leave a mark. The ones who are as much a part of you as your own soul. Their place in your heart is tender; a bruise of longing, a pulse of unfinished business. Just hearing their names pushes and pulls at you in a hundred ways, and when you try to define those hundred ways, describe them even to yourself, words are useless. If you had a lifetime to talk, there would still be things left unsaid. 

~Sara Zann

The mind.....

The mind weighs and measures 
but it is the spirit that reaches the heart of life 
and embraces the secret; 
and the seed of the spirit is deathless. 

~ Kahlil Gibran♥

Sitting next to you.....

Sitting next to you, no words to seek, 

my heart is telling your heart what my lips cannot speak.

In the depth of my soul.....

In the depth of my soul 

there are songs unwilling to take the garb of words, 

songs living as seed in my heart. 

They will not flow with ink onto paper. 

Like a translucent veil, 

they are wrapped about emotions 

that can never flow sweetly on my tongue.

~ Khalil Gibran♥

Long after.....

"Long after moments of closeness have passed

A part of you remains with me

And warms the places your hands have touched

And hastens my heart for your return."

~ Robert Sexton.

The moment you have in your heart this extraordinary thing called love.....

The moment you have in your heart
This extraordinary thing called love
and feel the depth, the delight,
the ecstacy of it, you will discover
that for you the world has transformed.


~~J. Krishnamurti

If there be a love pure .....

If there be a love pure and free from the admixture of our other passions, 

it is that which lies hidden in the bottom of our heart, 

and which we know not ourselves.

~~Francois de La Rochefoucauld

If I can stop one heart from breaking.....

If I can stop one heart from breaking,

I shall not live in vain:
If I can ease one life the aching,
Or cool one pain,
Or help one fainting robin
Unto his nest again,
I shall not live in vain.

~Emily Dickinson

Our souls were one.....

Our souls were one,

if you must know

 and never shall they be apart;

with splendid dawn,

your face aglow

I reach for you

and find my heart

~~Nicholas Sparks
