Something to believe in
for even a night
One night may be forever
but that’s alright, that’s alright
And if you’re gone tomorrow
what was ours still will be
I have something to believe in
now that I know you believed in me.
from Something to Believe In – Newsies the musical
I am glad that I had your love – even for just a little while.

Love can not fill the thickened lung with breath,
Nor clean the blood, nor set the fractured bone;
Yet many a man is making friends with death
Even as I speak, for lack of love alone.
from Love Is Not All by Edna St. Vincent Millay
Hold me, kiss me, love me…

My silent heart, lie still and break:
Life, and the world, and mine own self, are changed
For a dream’s sake.

Eventually, however, you discover that you have nurtured in another what you should have nurtured in yourself and you are left empty. Even damaged. Bending your will to his, you lose your own passions and dreams.
from Labyrinth of Desire by Rosemary Sullivan
The cost of loving you has proven to be too high.

No trumpet sounds before him,
No silver bugles blow,
And skies are radiant o’er him,
And stars to light him glow.

Pulsing with potentiality.
