I love this topic!!!! I could list thousands of these that I love!!!


Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage. - Lao Tzu

When we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them, and fall into mutually satisfying weirdness -- and call it love -- true love. - Robert Fulghum

She walks in Beauty, like the night
Of cloudness climes, and starry skies
And all that's best of dark and bright
Meet in her aspect and her eyes
~Lord Byron

If you're not
In it for love
If you're not
Willin' to give it all you got
If you're not in it for life
If you're not in it for love
Let me make it clear
To you my dear
If you're not in it for love
I'm outta here!

I just found this among some 18 poems I have written to my wife over the years we've been married, (hmm.. haven't written one in a while, perhaps it is time for more). **This piece may not be copied or reproduced under any circumstances without express written consent from myself**

In the days of old, the beasts of magic lived,
Among them lived a Unicorn with naught but love to give,
She wandered through the trees without a care and free,
She wandered toward the caves to see what she could see,
Upon the Dragon she came, startled by his size,
Eat her He did not, much to her surprise,
He looked at her a moment, He smiled of all things,
To her He gave his heart freely and with no strings,
To her He said someday, you shall see my Love,
That you and I are meant to be, it's in the stars above,
The days passed slowly, turning to months and years,
She finds her way to Him to help him dry his tears,
He cried for all the heartbreak, the suffering and pain,
From all the failed connections he made again and again,
Now it was her turn, to share with him her love,
She said Our time has come, as was written in stars above,
She handed him her heart, and said to him It's time,
For I've loved you from day one, and I want you to be mine,
Together they move forward, through this mystery called life,
Who'd ever thought a Dragon and Unicorn could become man and wife?

OK I'm not that sentimental but I think these lyrics about love are the most beautiful I have heard--

They say it's a river, that circles the earth
A beam of light shining to the edge of the universe
It conquers all, it changes everything

They say it's a blessing, they say it's a gift
They say it's a miracle
And I believe that it is
It conquers all, but it's a mystery

Love breaks your heart
Love takes no less than everything
Love makes it hard
And it fades away so easily

In this world we've created
In this place that we live
In the blink of an eye the darkness slips in
Love lights the world
Unites the lovers for eternity

Love breaks the chains
Love aches for everyone of us
Love takes the tears and the pain, and it turns it in-
To the beauty that remains

Look at this place
It was paradise, but now it's dying
I'll pray for love
I'll take my chances that it's not too late

Love breaks your heart
Love takes no less than everything
Love makes it hard
And fades away so easily

Love breaks the chains
Love aches for everyone of us
Love takes the tears and the pain

Haha fabulous! I love that!

PurpleDragon, what a sweet poem. I'm sure your wife would love for you to start writing them again!


Here are a couple of my faves:

"You're not perfect, sport, and let me save you the suspense: this girl you met, she isn't perfect either. The question is whether you're perfect for each other."
-Good Will Hunting

"Every day feels so incomplete until you walk into the room"
-David Gray

A White Rose

The red rose whispers of passion,
And the white rose breathes of love;
O, the red rose is a falcon,
And the white rose is a dove.

But I send you a cream white rosebud,
With a flush on its petal tips;
For the love that is purest and sweetest
Has a kiss of desire on the lips.

-John Boyle O'Reilly

Oh sure!! Make me get all sappy!! 

I've always thought this was a great love song.

You're my peace of mind in this crazy world.
You're everything I've tried to find, your love is a pearl.
You're my Mona Lisa, you're my rainbow skies,
and my only prayer is that you realize
you'll always be beautiful in my eyes.

The world will turn and the seasons will change,
and all the lessons we will learn will be beautiful and strange.
We'll have our fill of tears, our share of sighs.
And my only prayer is that you realize
you'll always be beautiful in my eyes.


You will always be beautiful in my eyes.
And the passing years will show
that you will always grow ever more beautiful in my eyes.


When there are lines upon my face from a lifetime of smiles,
and when the time comes to embrace for one long last while,
we can laugh about how time really flies.
We won't say goodbye 'cause true love never dies.
You'll always be beautiful in my eyes.


You will always be beautiful in my eyes.
And the passing years will show
that you will always grow ever more beautiful in my eyes.
The passing years will show that you will always grow
ever more beautiful in my eyes.

[Demetrius]

Written by Christine McVie


For you, there'll be no more crying,
For you, the sun will be shining,
And I feel that when I'm with you,
It's alright, I know it's right

To you, I'll give the world
To you, I'll never be cold
'Cause I feel that when I'm with you,
It's alright, I know it's right.

And the songbirds are singing,
Like they know the score,
And I love you, I love you, I love you,
Like never before.

And I wish you all the love in the world,
But most of all, I wish it from myself.

And the songbirds keep singing,
Like they know the score,
And I love you, I love you, I love you,
Like never before, like never before.

[Welsh Wench]

 I love that you get cold when it's 71 degrees out. I love that it takes you an hour and a half to order a sandwich. I love that you get a little crinkle above your nose when you're looking at me like I'm nuts. I love that after I spend the day with you, I can still smell your perfume on my clothes. And I love that you are the last person I want to talk to before I go to sleep at night. And it's not because I'm lonely, and it's not because it's New Year's Eve. I came here tonight because when you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible.

The Darkness
I Believe in a thing called Love

Can't explain all the feelings that you're making me feel
My heart's in overdrive and you're behind the steering wheel

Touching you, touching me
touching you, god you're touching me

I believe in a thing called love
Just listen to the rhythm of my heart
There's a chance we could make it now
We'll be rocking 'til the sun goes down
I believe in a thing called love
Ooh!

I wanna kiss you every minute, every hour, every day
You got me in a spin but everythin' is A.OK!

Touching you, touching me
touching you, god you're touching me

I believe in a thing called love
Just listen to the rhythm of my heart
There's a chance we could make it now
We'll be rocking 'til the sun goes down
I believe in a thing called love
Ooh! Guitar!

Touching you, touching me
touching you, god you're touching me

I believe in a thing called love
Just listen to the rhythm of my heart
There's a chance we could make it now
We'll be rocking 'til the sun goes down
I believe in a thing called love
Ooh!
