When I met you I was afraid to like you. When I liked you I was afraid to kiss you. When I kissed you I was afraid to hold you. When I held you I was afraid to love you. When I loved you I was afraid to lose you.
I'll cry a tear in the ocean for you, and the day you find it, is the day I'll stop loving you.
Somewhere, there's someone, who dreams ofyour smile, and finds in your presense that love is worth while, so when you're lonely, remember it's true, somewhere, someone, is thinking of you.
Just when I feel like I lost it all, I look at you and realize that I have it all.
Life is not measured by the breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breaths away.
I might not get to see you as much as I like. I may not get to hold you all throught the night. but deep inside my heart, I know it's true, no matter what, I will always love you.
The hardest thing in life to do is watch the guy you love, love someone else.
Nothing is more painful then realizing he meant everything to you and you meant nothing to him.
It hurts to love someone and not to be loved in return but what is more parinful is to love somone and to never find the courage to let that person know how you feel.
It takes only a minute to get a crush on someone, an hour to like somone, and a day to love someone - but it takes a lifetime to forget someone.
Don't go for looks, they can deceive. Don't go for wealth, even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile because it only takes a smile to make a dark day seem bright.
You never lose by loving, you lose by holding back.
You only live once, but if you work it right.... once is enough.
Sometimes love hurts.... then again, if it doesn't hurt, it isn't love.
I wish I had the guts to walk away and forget what we had but I can't because I know you won't walk after me and that's what hurts.
It's hard to tell your mind to stop loving someone when your heart still does.
I wrote your name in the sand but the waves washed it away. I wrote your name in my heart and forever it will stay.
The grand essentials of happiness are: something to do, something to love, and something to hope for.
Love is like quicksand- the deeper you fall in, the harder it is to get out.
What do you do when the only person that can make you stop crying is the person that made you cry?
some people make the world special just by being in it.
One day you will love me like I loved you, you will cry over me like I did for you, and you'll want me and I won't want you.
You'd better slow down, don't dance so fast. Time is short, the music won't last. Life isn't a race, take it slower, hear the music before the song's over.
It is with true love as it is with ghosts; everyone talks about it, but few have seen it
Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength while loving someone deeply gives you courage
To be happy with a man you must understand him a lot and love him a little. To be happy with a woman you must love her a lot and not try to understand her at all
"A mighty pain to love it is, and 'tis a pain that pain to miss; but of all the pains, the greatest pain is to love, but love in vain."
Within you I lose myself
Without you I find myself
Wanting to be lost again
"A kiss is a lovely trick designed by nature to stop speech when words become superfluous."
"What greater thing is there for two human souls
than to feel that they are joined together to strengthen each other in all labour,
to minister to each other in all sorrow,
to share with each other in all gladness,
to be one with each other in the silent unspoken memories?"
Love her as if this was your last hour before death would take her away from you forever. Speak to her as if love could carry you through all eternity. Besides, one day you will learn that this is nothing but the truth
The essential saddness is to go through life without loving.
But it would be almost equally sad to leave this world without ever telling those you loved that you love them
Some people come into our lives and quickly go.
Others stay for a while and leave footprints on our hearts and we are never ever the same
Love is when thoughts of but one man fill your heart, when he means more than life to you, when you know you would do anything for him and shall die if he is taken from you.
Desire is when you ache to see him and touch him, when he causes your body to burn and tremble.
Desire does not demand love before it can ensnare you, but desire with love creates a powerful bond
You'll never know how deep love goes till it's time to say goodbye
Loving, knowing that you are going to get hurt is like living knowing that you are going to die.
But not loving so you don't get hurt is like killing yourself before you die.
Some people never say the words 'I love you' for like a child they're longing to be told"
They are wrong who say that love is blind.
On the contrary, nothing - not even the smallest detail - escapes the eyes; one sees everything in the loved one, notices everything; but melts it all into one flame with the great and simple:
"I love you"
You know that when I hate you, it is because I love you to a point of passion that unhinges my soul
When you fall in love, you feel like a missing piece of a puzzle that's been found.
I love you not only for what you are, but for what I am when I am with you. I love you not only for what you have made of yourself, but for what you are making of me. I love you for the part of me that you bring out.
It's so hard to say goodbye to you. My heart knows the words, they just won't pump up to my lips
If you have love in your life, it can make up for a great many things that are missing. If you don't have love in your life, no matter what else there is, it's not enough.
There are some things that we never want to let go of... people we never want to leave behind,
but keep in mind that letting go isn't the end of the world. It's the beginning of new life.
The greatest regrets in our lives are the risks we did not take.
If you think something will make you happy, go for it.
Remember that you pass this way only once!
Heartbreaks will last as long as you want and
cut deep as you allow them to go;
the challenge is not how to survive heartbreaks but to learn from them
True love doesn't have a happy ending.
That's because true love doesn't have an ending
A heart truly in love never loses hope but always believes in the promise of love,
no matter how long the time and how far the distance.
We are never given dreams
without also being given the power to make them come true.
Love has its own time, season and own reasons! You can't ask it to stay,
you can only embrace it as it comes and be glad that for a moment in your life it was yours!
We have no right to ask when sorrow comes, "Why did this happen to me?"
Unless we ask the same question for every moment of happiness that comes our way
Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have.
Friends are like stars.
You can't always see them,
but you know they are there
Have great hopes and dare to go all out for them.
Have great dreams and dare to live them.
Have tremendous expectations and believe in them
By fate, we meet
By choice, we become friends
By effort, we stay as friends
You said you would always be there for me. I guess we have a difference in our definitions of always."
Somehow, the conversation mentioned your name. And someone asked if I knew you. Looking away I thought of all the times we had together; sharing laughter, tears, jokes and tons more. And then, without explanation you were gone. I looked to where they were waiting for an answer, and then said softly, 'Once...I thought I did'
Perhaps you'd be a big surprised how often, if you knew, a joke, a song, a memory will make me think of you.
you don't just stop feeling something for someone because you start feeling something for someone else.
i've seen fire and i've seen rain. i've seen sunny days that i thought would never end. i've seen lonely times when i could not find a friend, but i always thought that i'd see you again
people really do love each other. they just get confused sometimes and forget how to let each other know
i'm scared that i'm gonna end up alone. i'm scared that i'm always gonna be someone's friend, or confident, but never quite someone's everything. mostly i'm scared i'm never gonna meet a guy that i love as much as i love you
Why should i care? cz you wernt there when i was scared, when i was so alone.
i think I'll go anti-love. really, who needs it? butterfliesin the tummy and hearts skipping beats...that can't be safe."
trying to forget someone you loved is like trying to remember someone you never knew
it's sad to think about what happened to us... but what's even more sad is to realize that there never was an us
i'd rather be your lover than your friend, but i'd rather be your friend than your nothing
i wish i had the guts to walk away from what we have, but i can't because i know you won't follow me, and that's what hurts the most.
"i don't know what it is really, but sometimes it takes everything in me to not reach out & run my fingers through your hair or turn around & hug you when you are least expecting it
bittersweet memories, that is all i'm taking with me. so goodbye, and please don't cry.. we both know that i'm not what you need.... and i will always love you"
am i not pretty enough? is my heart too broken? do i cry too much? am i too outspoken? don't i make you laugh? should i try it harder? why do you see right through me?"
Are you aware of what you make me feel baby?
right now i feel invisible it you, like i'm not real.
didnt you feel me lock my arms around you, why'd you turn away?
Although you may not love me, although you may not care if you shall ever need me, you know that I'll be there. Your love may be all taken, your heart may not be free. But when your heart is broken, you can always lean on me. I'll never stop loving you, I know because I've tried. All the oceans in the world couldn't hold the tears I've cried.
"Summer air reminds me of all the feelings of your love, and what it was like when we were together, walking all along the beach, you were never far from my rach, and you held me through the stormy weather.... and I want to fall in love tonight, and I remember when you said "everything is gonna be alright," laying in the summer grass, you told me not to talk so fast as I told you how I feel, you made me feel right at home, you told me I was not alone and you knew just how I feel."
"I wish I could count to 10 and make everything be wonderful again."
"I'll close my eyes, then I won't see the love you don't feel when you're holding me."
"Whenever I watch romantic movies, witness couples kiss and make up, listen to love songs... I smile and feel good cuz I know that love still works, if not for me, at least for others."
Why can't I feel anything for anyone other than you?"
i guess i cant tell time very well, he said he would love me forever, i thought forever was alot longer.

FOR LOVE I'D DO ANYTHING, FOR YOU I'D DO MORE!

Love is like a butterfly...hold it too tight and it will crush...hold it too lose and it will fly away.

*If i was an angel I would make your every wish come true, but i'm only human. A gurl who's in love with you
Know everyone you love but dont love everyone you know
You're not my friend, friends don't look at each other like we do
I must be crazy, I mean absolutely crazy to think that my best friend in the whole entire world would actually fall for ME."

some people care too much. i think it's called love
You've already won me over in spite of me
Don't be alarmed if I fall head over feet
Don't be surprised if I love you for all that you are
I couldn't help it
It's all your fault
"It hurts to love someone and not to be loved in return, but what's more painful is to love someone and never find the courage to tell that person how you feel."
You know you really like someone, when you sit the painful way in your chair just to get a better look at them."
"When he's around, my whole body knows it. I'll keep talking and stuff, but my mind will have no idea what I'm saying. I keep wondering if there's a term for this
Love is like a jigsaw puzzle, you're given the pieces, but you must have the patience to fit them together.
To love someone, when there is no chance of that love ever thriving. That is romance.
The sound of a kiss is not so loud as that of a canon, but it's echo lasts a great deal longer.
If kisses were stars I'd give you the sky,
It touches were tears I would cry,
If love was water I'd give you the sea,
And be with you for eternity.
You are the sun in my winter sky, you are the hello in my goodbye. You are the stars shining down on me, you are everything I had hoped you would be. You are the arms wrapped around a hug, you are the pull when I need a little tug. You are the lips that feel my gentle touch, you are the one who I love so much. You are the one who I come to for love, you are my angel sent from above. I need your love, I need you too, because I am the I in I love you.
Tonight when I lay in your arms feeling the way I do - I'll never forget the someone who can make me feel just how you have.... You give me tingles up and down my back, you give me shivers throughout the night, and when we're apart I feel a sense... a sense that only you could give - in every way I want you to know that anything and everything you have ever done - you're perfect
You don't get to choose, you just fall in love, and you get this person who is all wrong and all right at the same time and you know that you love them so much except sometimes they just drive you completely insane and no one can explain it and the reason its so confusing is because its love.
Make yourself necessary to someone."

"Did my heart love 'til now? Foreswear its sight--for I never saw true beauty 'til this night."
"My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun; Coral is far more red than her lips' red; If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun: If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head. I have seen roses damasked, red and white; But no such roses I see in her cheeks; And in some perfumes is there more delight Than in the breath from my mistress reaks: I love to hear her speak, yet well I know that music hath a far more pleasing sound; I grant I never saw a goddess go: My mistress, when she walks, treads on the ground. And yet, by heaven, I think my love as rare as any she belied with false compare."

"I was in a cathedral when I got down on my knees and worshipped you, mistook you for an angel without those two celestial wings."
"I'll sweep you off your feet, and make God regret he left an angel behind."
"I should have been more careful. I was blinded by your halo, so I never noticed the horns."
"Never thought that love could feel like this and you changed my world with just one kiss, how can it be that right here with me there's an angel?"
"Twice or thrice had I loved thee before I knew thy face or name, so in a voice, so in a shapeless flame, angels affect us oft, and worshipped be."
"A friend is always good to have, but a lover's kiss is better than angels raining down on me."
"Her thoughts float through my mind like an Angel on heavenly winds. Can't she see this, can't she hear the screams of my soul as the two of them reunited slowly fade to black in the night!"
"Lead me not into temptation, heaven help me to be strong. I can't fight all that I'm feelin', and I can't do it alone. Help me break this spell that I'm under, guide my feet and hold me tight. I need 10,000 angels watchin' over me tonight."
"Just one night in your dreams would be like spending eternity staring at the face of an angel."
"I believe in angels, the kind that heaven sends. I'm surrounded by angels, but I call them my best friends."
"Friends are angels that come from above. Sent down from God for you to love. So if you are sad, and don't know what to do. Just remember that I care for you!"
If there ever comes a day When we can't be together keep me in your heart, I'll stay there forever.
No one has ever loved anyone
The way everyone wants to be loved
And you learn that love, true love, Always has joys and sorrow, Seems ever present, Yet is never quite the same, Becoming more than love and less than love, So difficult to define. And you learn that through it all, You really can endure, That you really are strong, That you do have value.
Love is as much of an object as an obsession, everybody wants it, everybody seeks it, but few ever achieve it, those who do will cherish it, be lost in it, and among all, never... never forget it. -Curtis Judalet
Love is born of faith,
Lives on hope,
And dies of charity
When love beckons to you follow him,
Though his ways are hard and steep.
And when his wings enfold you yield to him,
Though the sword hidden among his pinions
May wound you.
And when he speaks to you believe in him,
Though his voice may shatter your dreams
As the north wind lays waste the garden.
For even as love crowns you
so shall he crucify you.
Even as he is for your growth
So is he for your pruning.
We are never so helplessly unhappy as when we lose love.
--Sigmund Freud
Falling in love consists merely in uncorking the imagination and bottling the common sense.

Relationships are like Rome. Difficult to start out, incredible during the prosperity of the 'Golden Age', and unbearable during the fall.

This kingdom will become your best friend, your soulmate, and your love.

Love never dies a natural death. It dies because we don't know how to replenish its source. It dies of blindness and errors and betrayals. It dies of illness and wounds; it dies of weariness, of withering, of tarnishing.
I have found the paradox that if I love until it hurts, then there is no hurt, but only more love.

*Should I smile because he is my best friend, or cry because that is all he'll ever be?*
*the memories seep through my veins, for i'm truly empty, hearts change i know they do, but part of my heart will always be with you*
*Sometimes no matter how secure you are in someone's arms & no matter how tightly you hold onto that person's hand, you'll find yourself falling dangerously in love with someone else*
*It takes a minute to meet someone, an hour to know someone, a day to love someone, and an eternity to forget someone*
*When i was with you everything was perfect, I would forget every trouble and problem... i'd even forget to breath. Now you're gone and every trouble and problem seems bigger than the world. i hate it without you... i hate remembering to breath*
*He holds me when i start to cry, makes me smile with just his eyes, shares my hopes, dreams & fears. Wipes away all my tears. I love him without regret... I just haven't found him yet*
*My heart still aches in sadness & secret tears still flow. what it meant to lose you, no one will ever know*
*No matter if ur scared..I'll be there...Just believe & follow ur heart...If ur still scared I'll be there just hold my hand*
*When I look at you, my heart skips a beat, but later that beat could mean a lifetime of tears wasted on something I knew I could never have*
*its not like i intended on this. Falling for you again. Its not like i want it. All you do is break me. But when i see you, its like i forget all that. I forget about the heart you have shattered so many times and i forget about all the times i cried. I forget all of my hurt just for the chance of you holding me again. I miss you. I dont know exactly why i do, but i miss you.*
*He was the one who made me smile the most. He was the one who made me cry the most, too. he was the one that brought me all the happiness i could handle. He was the one who brought me all the pain as well. he remains to this day to be the only one that gave me that much love. he remains to be the only one i ever gave so much. it was him... it was always him...*
*The reason why I'm really holding you, is because i realized its the last time i'm allowed to.*
*The hardest things is to see the one you love, love someone else... so when you say I LOVE YOU to me please say it true cuz a lie like that will make me cry and I'm not strong enough to say goodbye*
*Love is sometimes magic, but magic is sometimes...just an illusion*
*If you love someone, let them go. If they return to you, it was meant to be. If they don't, their love was never yours to begin with*
*Frustrated cuz I can't tell if its real, mad cuz i don't kno how u fell, upset cuz we can't make it rite, sad cuz i need you day and nite, angry cuz you won't take my hand, aggrivated cuz u don't understand, dissapointed cuz we can't be together, but still i'll love you now and forever*
*I don't understand why I like you. I know I can't have you, but I still want you. I know that you'll never want me the way I want you. But I just keep dreaming, knowing that I can't have you and it hurts but I continue dreaming, and so does the pain*
*my tears are still falling from my eyes. this isn't about wishing you'd come back to me & it's not about wishing someone would notice me. This is about surviving. this is about me simply getting through tomorrow*
*He waits for her to understand, but she wont understand at all, she waits all night for him to call, but he wont call anymore, he wait to hear her say "forgive," but she just drops her pearl black eyes, and prays to hear him say "I love you," but he won't tell her no more lies he waits for her to sympathize, but she wont sympathize at all, she waits all night to feel his kiss, but always wakes alone, he waits to hear her say "forget," but she just hangs her head in pain, and prays to hear him say "no more, I'll never leave again," How did we get this far apart? I thought this love would last forever*
*The world was on fire and no one could save me but you. I never thought I would fall for someone like you. I never dreamt of losing someone like you*
Treasure the love that you recieve above all. It will survive long after your gold and good health have vanished. - Og Mandino.
The only thing I know about love is that love is all there is... love can do all but raise the dead. - Emily Dickinson.
In our life there is a single colour, as on an artist's palette, which provides the meaning of life and art. It is the colour of love. - Marc Chagall.
I miss you a little; I guess you could say, a little too much, a little too often, a little more each day.
It's not missing you that kills me...It's knowing I once had you in my life that does.
I hate the way I could never hate you.
I hate you...and then I love you...it's like I want to throw you off a cliff....then rush to the bottom to catch you.
"There's something about the look in your eyes. Something I noticed when the light was just right. It reminded me twice that I was alive and reminded me that you're so worth the fight."- Incubus
People will forget what you said. People will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.
It's always times like these when I think of you and I wonder if you ever think of me...
Shake off the "why's" and the "what if's" and rid yourself of confusion. Whatever was - is in the past. Whatever is ? that?s what's important. The past is a brief reflection, and the future is yet to be realized.
What power has love but forgiveness? In other words, by its intervention what has been done can be undone. What good is it otherwise?"
There are moments in life, when you miss someone so much, that you want to pick them, from your dreams, and hug them.
I do not want to make reasons for you to stay, only reasons for you to return.
Never again, That's what I said to myself. I never want to feel your kind of pain again.
Just when I think its over, just when I think I'm through, I find myself back in love with you
We're all lonely for something we don't know we're lonely for. How else to explain the curious feeling that goes around feeling like missing somebody we've never met? -David Foster Wallace
"It hurts to realize that the people you thought you'd love for life don't love you as much as you thought they did and can do without you as if they never knew you at all."
"There are two kinds of people in the world: the kind that stick by you through thick and thin, and those who make you stronger by killing you within."
There will always be people you can't believe you were friends with, boys you can't believe you kissed, and people you can't believe you lived without... people change but if you're lucky a certain few will change with you.
"It's so lonely when you don't even know yourself."- Red Hot Chili Peppers.
I've found you find strength in your moments of weakness. -Rascal Flatts.
"Funny how we feel so much but cannot say a word. We are screaming inside but we can't be heard"-Sarah McLachlan.
