When you see or hear the word romance, or romantic, what do you think of? Is there just one subject, or is there many when you widen the things you "love" and "romance"? Well, I agree, the very first thing that would come to my mind would be the sharing of feelings between one person and another. Romance and love have broad meanings, other than the feelings we have for another person. Love for example is the feeling we have for something, or someone. Romance is a little less broad, but still there are many romantic things. Such as a rose, there is no affection in that; unless, of course, it is given as a token of love. Now that we understand the meaning of these words, I bring you into the affection of love. The meaning of when two find themselves so overwhelmed with another person that the world turns around them. A moment in time where there are no other living beings, but you and that other person. Points in a life time where you feel that you could do anything, and would stop at nothing to protect your greatest treasure. Some types of love are unwelcome at times, or placed only because of flashes of false feelings. The types of love where you are pushed into unexpectedly, or helplessly led into. Most of these are because of a person's outer beauty. These types of love do not last in the years to come. To love a person, you must love from inside to out. If you can not do this, you will find a heart break to come. When you look at some of these paintings look for the ones where are the eternal, and the others which are only for the outer beauty.
         
        “When I Look At You”
        ---By: Unknown---
         
            "When I look at you, I see what love can truly mean. When I hold you, I feel what love really brings. When I touch my lips with yours, I feel the depth of you and me. When I stroke you, I know that you were meant for me. I love you. My heart breaks each day when you're not with me. My courage slowly disappears every time I try to hold you. But I grasp the air that you were meant to be. When I think of love, I think of you. When loneliness comes to haunt me, I say your name to ward that wretched curse away. You are the one I love. You are the one for me."
         
        “When Two People Become One In Love”
        ---By: Susan Polis Schutz---
         
            "Ever since the day we met I knew that you were extremely special I knew that I wanted to get to know you better and I knew that my emotions had been touched. Ever since the day I fell in love with you I knew that I wanted to spend all my time with you I knew that I wanted to tell you everything about myself I knew that I would begin to grow as a person Ever since the day that you and I became one I knew that my body and mind were passionate forever I knew that I wanted our relationship to last forever If we had not met I would still be searching for happiness and I would always be thinking that love was not real. So I want to dearly thank you for the day we met and forever after. I love you."
         
        “I'm Falling In Love”
        ---By: Unknown---

            "Every time I see your face and I hear your voice, It stirs up feelings inside that I've never felt before. Was it the words you said that made me feel this way? Maybe it was the touch of your hand and the smile on your face. I think I'm falling in love with you. Is this love that I'm feeling inside? Is this love that is burning my heart, And keeping me up at night. Oh, Lord, I don't even know what to do. I think I'm falling in love with you. I always lose control when your by my side. You have become the light of my life. I always enjoy the time I spend with you. Because nothing makes me feel the way you do. I think I'm falling in love with you. You are my best friend and my only true love. I'm sure that you were sent from heaven above. Today is the first day of the rest of our lives. And our future is beginning to look so bright. I think I'm falling in love with you."
         

        “Love, I Love You”
        ---By: Larry S. Chengges---

            "Love, I love you not only for what you are, but for what I am when I am with you. I love you, not only for what you have made of yourself, but for what you are making of me. I love you for he part of me that you bring out, I love you for reaching out and touching my heart, and passing over all the foolish, weak things that you can't help simply seeing there, and for drawing out into the light all the beautiful belongings that no one else had looked quite far enough to find. Love is entrusting our faults to one another. Love is belonging in each other's thoughts with care as well as feeling. Love is beautiful. You are enhanced by my love. I am enhanced by you, Love. I love because of you, and you are the reason for all of my tomorrows. Your love makes my life complete."

            I once had a heart, So lively and happy. But it wasn't until that one day, I met this lady, Who gave me the power to release it. After she held my hand, And kissed my lips My heart soared. So high, so far. No one could touch me, I was in heaven with my love. Then the unthinkable happened, My heart has been crushed. It feel to the ground. Lying there all alone, And stepped on over and over again. I felt myself dying, I felt myself being crushed. But it was not until I looked up and saw her, The one who I loved who has given me this power, Was being taken away.  She hollered as I screamed. But it was no use, I was going one way and her another..
            The once pure loving heart of mine, Had been taken away and left. This hallow, empty corpse of my once living body. I struggled free, For one brief moment I was free. I ran to my heart, Beating slower and slower without a body or a need. I picked it up, And screamed to my love. She looked at me, Time had stopped, Given us a chance.. I took my heart and threw it towards her, She caught it and smiled. Something strange came back into my body as she took hold of it, It was the life I thought I had lost. And at that moment, I knew, Our love was true, and nothing could change that. I could now go away, Knowing that everything would be ok, Everything was ok..
            I sighed with a deep breath, As they took me by the arms again to drag me away. I just watched my darling, my love, Go further and further from me. With tears from my eyes, Anger where my heart had once been I heard her soft and Passionate words. I will never forget them.. never. She said... "Live is hard, Life is unfair. But love is pure, Love is wonderful. But true love is even greater. Everything will be all right, I am here in your thoughts and soul." I smiled at these words, Knowing every bit of it was true. I stood up proud, and continued on my way, As her words keep repeating in my head. And I knew.. The one thing she meant the most.. "I love you.."
