Only Love

Love can sometimes be fresh.
Love can sometimes be new.
Love can sometimes make you happy.
And sometimes make you blue.
Love is the light that radiates from your eyes.
Love is your image floating in the skies.
Love is true.
And darling, the only love for me is you.

 Lamar Cole

She walks in beauty, like the night 
Of cloudless climes and starry skies,
And all that's best of dark and bright,
Meet in the aspect and her eyes;
Thus mellow'd to that tender light
Which heaven and gaudy day denies.

O Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?

   Romeo and Juliet              

Romeo: O, wilt thou leave me so unsatisfied? 
Juliet: What satisfaction canst thou have tonight? 
Romeo: The exchange of thy love's faithful vow for mine. 
Juliet: I gave thee mine before thou didst request it!
