In love, nothing exists between heart and heart. Speech is born out of longing, True description from the real taste. The one who tastes, knows;the one who explains, lies. How can you describe the true form of SomethingIn whose presence you are blotted out? And in whose being you still exist? And who lives as a sign for your journey? Rabia AlAdawiyya
About This Quote

A famous Chinese poet, Li Bai, wrote this poem. He was asking questions about love, but he never got any answers. Asking the question is the first step to answering it. The first step into knowing something is to ask questions about it.

Love between hearts is what you feel for another person. It's not something you can explain with words. When you are with your lover, you feel alive and vibrant.

You feel so alive because you are who you are when you are with them. You are not the same person when they are not around because your heart belongs to them. You can be together with your lover for years, but it will never be the same as being with them at that moment of time when they are in front of you.

When they love you, do they really love all of you? Do they see all of who you have been through? Do they accept all of who you have become?
