Love is like standing on wet cement, the longer you stay the
harder it is to leave...and you can never go without leaving your
prints behind...
True love hears what is not spoken, and understands what is not
explained, for love doesn't work in the mouth, nor the mind, but in
the heart...
"Love may leave your heart like shattered glass, but keep in mind
that there's someone who'll be willing to endure the pain of
picking up the pieces so you could be whole again"
