She embraces me elaborately… casually as a breeze, softly as one caresses a flower; she kisses me as dispassionately as heaven kisses the sea, softly and quietly as dew kisses a flower, solemnly as the sea kisses the image of the moon. Soren Kierkegaard (1813-1855)
“The first stab of love is like a sunset, a blaze of color — oranges, pearly pinks, vibrant purples…” Anna Godbersen, The Luxe
Then he lifted the hand he held, and turning it palm upward, kissed it lightly and deliberately, and folding her fingers upon the kiss, released it. Mary Margaret Kay b 1911
It comes so soon, the moment when there is nothing left to wait for…Marcel Proust (1871-1922)
Her crystal laughter broke through my solemnity, cutting away the trepidation, the hesitation, the shyness. That crystal sound grasped my heart, tugging at it to open and let her inside. Christina Crawford, b. 1939
To Be content in bliss, without desire or insistence anywhere, this was heaven: to be together in happy stillness. D.H. Lawrence (1885-1930)
Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer’s lease hath all too short a date:
Sometimes too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And too often is his gold complexion dimm’d:
And every fair from fair sometimes declines,
By chance or natures changing course untrimm’d;
By thy eternal summer shall not fade,
Nor lose possession of that fair thou owest;
Nor shall Death brag thou wander’st in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou growest:
So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,
So long lives this and this gives life to thee. By Shakespeare
Who could refrain that had a heart to love and in that heart courage to make love known? Shakespeare
“It’s one thing to fall in love. It’s another to feel someone else fall in love with you, and to feel a responsibility toward that love.”
