I will let my body flow like water over the gentle cushions..

Some say an army of horsemen, or infantry, A fleet of ships is the fairest thing On the face of the black earth, but I say It's what one loves..

From all the offspring of the earth and heaven love is the most precious..

Someone, I tell you, in another time will remember us.

Love - bittersweet, irrepressible - loosens my limbs and I tremble..

Although only breath, words which I command are immortal..

When anger spreads through the breath, guard thy tongue from barking idly..

Whatever one loves most is beautiful..

Stand and face me, my love,and scatter the grace in your eyes..

There is no place for grief in a house which serves the Muse..

What cannot be said will be wept..

When I look on you a moment, then I can speak no more, but my tongue falls silent, and at once a delicate flame courses beneath my skin, and with my ….

Once again love drives me on, that loosener of limbs, bittersweet creature against which nothing can be done..

Love is a cunning weaver of fantasies and fables..

You may forget but let me tell you this: someone in some future time will think of us.

Beauty endures only for as long as it can be seen; goodness, beautiful today, will remain so tomorrow..

Mere air, these words, but delicious to hear..

Stars veil their beauty soon / Beside the glorious moon, / When her full silver light / Doth make the whole earth bright..

No honey for me, if it comes with a bee..

I would not think to touch the sky with two arms.

May I write words more naked than flesh, stronger than bone, more resilient than sinew, sensitive than nerve..
