- what was it like to love him? asked gratitude. it was like being exhumed, i answered, and brought to life in a flash of brilliance.
- before i fell in love with words, with setting skies and singing birds — it was you i fell in love with first.
- the briefest moment shared with you — the longest on my mind.
- 'it's so dark right now, i can't see any light around me.' 'that's because the light is coming from you. you can't see it but everyone else can.'
- i love you, i do - you have my word. you have all my words.
- when someone stirs a world of emotion in you and it’s so intense you can barely stand to be with him.
- i loved you more than love allowed.
- if anyone else were to kiss me, all they would taste is your name.
- i know you and i are not about poems or other sentimental bullshit but i have to tell you even the way you drink your coffee knocks me the fuck out.
- i will love you when you are a still day. i will love you when you are a hurricane.
- i think you're beautiful. breathtaking. like the person in a greek myth who makes one of the gods stop caring about being a god.
- the very thought of you has my legs spread apart like an easel with a canvas begging for art.
- your body is a museum of natural disasters can you grasp how stunning that is.
- you might not have been my first love but you were the love that made all the other loves irrelevant.
- you are every hope i've ever had in human form.
- i’d be lying if i said you make me speechless. the truth is you make my tongue so weak it forgets what language to speak in.
- you’ve touched me without even touching me.
- you are the center of my universe and everything else spun around you.
- you are all the colors in one, at full brightness.
- you make me lovely, and it’s so lovely to be lovely to the one i love.
- i feel the need to say something grand and poetic, but the only thing i come up with is 'he's lovely.'
- you make me love you, and that could be the greatest thing my heart was ever fit to do.
- he made her feel like more than the sum of her parts.
