|
| I see me, in your deep eyes,
a stronger, faster and bolder me;
Wild and reckless as lightning on skies;
Who thinks he could fly, if he just tried.
|
| You are lodged in my heart,
and the small key is lost;
you must stay here now,
forever.
Frau Ava (12th century)
|
| Your blues I see drizzling,
blanketing you in motionless haze;
But when you are sad, just think,
Heaven, could be giving no more.
|
|
|
|
| Like spring that blooms
on barren branches,
Call your smiles back.
And your most wildest dreams.
|
| When you sleep, in silent nights,
May the little fairies alight upon you,
touching your lips with magic wands
and rendering rainbows in your eyes.
|
| My hearts beat out your name
to me, unceasing, pitiless,
your name, your name.
Mary Carolyn Davis - "Love Song"

|
|
| Oh love is the crooked thing,
there is nobody wise enough
to find out all that is in it.
W. B. Yeats - "Brown Penny"
|
| Is love a light for me?
A steady light,
A lamp in whose pallid pool I dream.
Katherine Mansfield - "Secret Flowers"
|
| I am two fooles, I know
for loving, and for saying so
In whining poetry.
John Donne - "The Triple Foole"
