I promise you my love,
For today and tomorrow;
I promise you as much happiness as I can give;
I promise not to doubt or mistrust you,
But to grow and add to your life of content.
I promise never to try to change you,
But will accept the changes you make in yourself;
And I will accept your love for me withour fear of tomorrow;
Knowing that tomorrow, I'll love you more than I do today.
- Donna J. Pawluk

I want to love you and always be with you
Share all life's pleasures and heartaches with you...
Make every plan and dream each dream with you
And I want to help you comfort and love you
I want to always be with you
- Dolly Parton

Sometimes I get lonely
and thinking about you helps
reminding me that there is a person
I cherish so very much always close in spirit
even when you're so far away
But sometimes it hurts even more to think of you...
your laugh, your touch and to remember just
How much I miss
your gentle face
your tender ways
your presence in my life
- Laine Parsons

Is it possible to love someone too much...
if it is, that's how I love you.
I guess by that I'm saying,
I love you and it hurts...
You're miles away,
and when I'm lonely
and you are all that's
on my mind, it hurts...a lot
But then when I pick myself back up,
I realize...you're worth it,
and loving too much...
is just enough.

With you
I would like to spend a
snowbound afternoon by a fire
I woudl like to walk on the
shore of a lake on a summer night
I would like to fly the sky
in a many-colored balloon
I would liek to find some quiet
place for just a few moments today
I would like to feel the comfort of my head on your shoulder
With you
I would like to stay

O
Our love
will survive the space
between us
No distance
can alter
our feelings
for each other
for we're truly in love.
- Holly Sobey

Words are so inadequate to express the
overwhelming sense of feelings
I have for you
I feel excited and elated
I feel strong and confident
I feel stable and warm
Though I can't really explain how I feel
I do know that I am very happy inside
Thank you
