I have seen how the cat asleep
would undulate, how the night
flowed through it like dark water;
and at times, it was going to fall
or possibly plunge into
the bare deserted snowdrifts.
Sometimes it grew so much in sleep
like a tiger’s great-grandfather,
and would leap in the darkness over
rooftops, clouds and volcanoes.
from Pablo Neruda’s poem Cat’s Dream, translated by Alastair Reid

I love the way you sleep.

America's Top Model, Beauty, Fashion, Khrystyana Kazakova, Pablo Neruda, Photography, Sonnet XVII: I do not love you as if you were brine-rose, Todd Hido

© Todd Hido

I do not love you as if you were salt-rose, or topaz,
or the arrow of carnations the fire shoots off.
I love you as certain dark things are to be loved,
in secret, between the shadow and the soul.
from Sonnet XVII by Pablo Neruda, translated by Stephen Tapscott 

I wish you would articulate your love for me.

Beauty, Desire, Fashion, Lauren DiMarco, Love, Photography, Samuel Taylor Coleridge

When true Love burns Desire is Love’s pure flame;
It is the reflex of our earthly frame,
That takes its meaning from the nobler part,
And but translates the language of the heart.
from Desire by Samuel Taylor Coleridge 

You have shown me the purest form of love.

When he saw her there was a recognition,
a sense that they would be together
for the rest of their lives.
She never felt the same way.
from All for Naught by Joan Currie

I have learned to put a governor on my romantic imaginings.

Come, O come, my life’s delight,
Let me not in languor pine!
Love loves no delay; thy sight,
The more enjoyed, the more divine:
O come, and take from me
The pain of being deprived of thee!
from My Life’s Delight by Thomas Campion

I love being the object of your affection.

Well…
Maybe it’s time to be clear about who I am.
I am someone who is looking for love.
Real love. Ridiculous, inconvenient,
consuming can’t live without each other love.
from Sex and the City – Season 6

Show me the man who needs the same full throttle kind of love.

He looked nothing like you
and sounded nothing like you.
But in all the important ways
he was very much you.
 poem fragment by Lauren DiMarco 

I am resigned to the fact that you are omnipresent….

America's Top Model, beautiful, Falling in Love in Six Acts - A Passion Play, Fashion, Khrystyana Kazakova, Love, Photography

© Khrystyna Kazakova

 You feel funny inside. You feel funny outside. You feel you could do anything and no one would dare laugh at you.
This love, you will treasure. You will not put it in the basement next to your rowing machine, treadmill, and thermal body sweat wrap. And you will not take this love for granted, because that is the biggest sin of all.
from Falling in Love in Six Acts (A Passion Play) an ad by Nike

Please, please, please make this feeling last…
