The last of life for which the first was made.” – Robert Browning

My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
For the ends of Being and ideal Grace.” – Elizabeth Barrett Browning

(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life; which grows
higher than soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart
I carry your heart (I carry it in my heart)” – ee cummings

Swept by the tempest of your love,
A taper in a rushing wind.” – Sarah Teasdale

joined together in friendship
united forever in love.” – Anonymous

Admit impediments. Love is not love

That looks on tempests and is never shaken . . .” – William Shakespeare

I was on fire. I knew no thought but this;

And had – since centuries first began to roll.” – Emily Dickinson

Are not in love divisible and distinct,

And we will all the pleasures prove,

Woods or steepy mountain yields.” – Christopher Marlowe

And longer than the song of the Whippoorwill.” – Randy Travis

Go to the ends of the earth for you.
