For those who just need a little love.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Love

"Love is composed of a single soul inhabiting two bodies." -- Aristotle

"A kiss is a lovely trick, designed by nature, to stop words when speech becomes superfluous." -- Ingrid Bergmen

"Where we love is home, home that our feet may leave, but not our hearts."
-- Oliver Wendell Holmes

"Love is a temporary madness. It erupts like an earthquake and then subsides. And when it subsides you have to make a decision. You have to work out whether your roots have become so entwined together that it is inconceivable that you should ever part. Because this is what love is. Love is not breathlessness, it is not excitement, it is not the promulgation of promises of eternal passion. That is just being "in love" which any of us can convince ourselves we are.

Love itself is what is left over when being in love has burned away, and this is both an art and a fortunate accident. Your mother and I had it, we had roots that grew towards each other underground, and when all the pretty blossom had fallen from our branches we found that we were one tree and not two."
-- Captain Corelli's Mandolin


It's true, I do-
love you so much, so very much.
It is difficult to bear the fact
that circumstance and time have sought to undermine
the deep and special love I feel for you.

A war. A war!
In harms way you may find yourself,
while I am lost in loneliness
and sometimes tears.
Because a war keeps us apart,
...the rivulets of tears fall
every time I think of you.
I love you, I do, so very much.

Each night on bended knee
I pray to keep you safe,
through the drum beats of the war
that line the paths of glory.
Take my heart, my love,
and keep it with you,
no matter where the peril.

In thought, in mind, in every breath,
you are with me - and I with you,
on every rampart, in every scene, every moment,
day and night.

When your time to serve has ended,
when this war is done - and won,
my outstretched arms will embrace you.

Waiting...until you return, my love.
