What I need in today's hookup culture is the kind of person who ties my shoelaces or waits for me to tie 'em while the whole world moves ahead.
“You have a lot in common with the moon; its light & its beauty, & its distance from me.”

If love was to be measured in water,
mine for you would create Tsunamis.

Its like my best brain time starts at peak midnight with caffeine and sugar rush.
I cannot express it; but surely you and everybody have a notion that there is or should be an existence of yours beyond you. What were the use of my creation, if I were entirely contained here? My great miseries in this world have been Heathcliff's miseries, and I watched and felt each from the beginning: my great thought in living is himself. If all else perished, and he remained, I should still continue to be; and if all else remained, and he were annihilated, the universe would turn to a mighty stranger: I should not seem a part of it.—My love for Linton is like the foliage in the woods: time will change it, I'm well aware, as winter changes the trees. My love for Heathcliff resembles the eternal rocks beneath: a source of little visible delight, but necessary. Nelly, I am Heathcliff! He's always, always in my mind: not as a pleasure, any more than I am always a pleasure to myself, but as my own being.
Emily Brontë, Wuthering heights
‘I have no notion of loving people by halves, it is not my nature. My attachments are always excessively strong.’
Jane Austen, “Northanger abbey”
"I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim."
~ Frida Kahlo
I am half afraid to hope for what I long for.
Emily Dickinson
What you are doing to me, I want done FOREVER.

It's so out of the way how a single person is missing for you and the whole world feels empty.
‘Its a thorny journey ahead, and I am barefoot.’
