Valentine's day

So many single people in love,
So many couples pretending to love each other.

Portuguese Do It Better

Era um amor à Romeu,
vindo de repente numa troca de olhares fatal e deslumbradora,
uma dessas paixões que assaltam uma existência,
a assolam como um furacão,
arrancando a vontade, a razão,
os respeitos humanos
e empurrando-os de roldão aos abismos.
Eça de Queirós – Os Maias

Wedding Song

Settle down with me
Cover me up
Cuddle me in
Lie down with me
Hold me in your arms

And your heart's against my chest
Lips pressed to my neck
I've fallen for your eyes
But they don't know me yet

And the feeling I forget
I'm in love now

Kiss me like you wanna be loved
Wanna be loved
Wanna be loved

This feels like falling in love
Falling in love
Falling in love

Settle down with me
And I'll be your safety
You'll be my lady

I was made to keep your body warm
But I'm cold as, the wind blows
So hold me in your arms

My heart's against your chest
Your lips pressed to my neck
I'm falling for your eyes
But they don't know me yet

And the feeling I forget
I'm in love now

Kiss me like you wanna be loved
Wanna be loved
Wanna be loved

This feels like falling in love
Falling in love
Falling in love

Yeah I've been feeling everything
From hate to love
From love to lust
From lust to truth
I guess that's how I know you

So hold you close
To help you give it up

So kiss me like you wanna be loved
Wanna be loved
Wanna be loved

This feels like falling in love
Falling in love
Falling in love

So kiss me like you wanna be loved
Wanna be loved
Wanna be loved

This feels like falling in love
Falling in love
Falling in love
Ed Sheeran - Kiss Me

For Real

It is a risk to love.
What if it doesn't work out?
Ah, but what if it does!

Time To Say Goodbye

Bob Dylan - Don't Think Twice, It's All Right

It ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
If you don't know by now
An' it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
It doesn't matter anyhow
When your rooster crows at the break of dawn
Look out your window and I'll be gone
You're the reason I'm trav'lin' on
Don't think twice, it's all right

It ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe
That light I never knowed
An' it ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe
I'm on the dark side of the road
Still I wish there was somethin' you would do or say
To try and make me change my mind and stay
We never did too much talkin' anyway
So don't think twice, it's all right

So it ain't no use in callin' out my name, gal
Like you never did before
It ain't no use in callin' out my name, gal
I can't hear you any more
I'm a-thinkin' and a-wond'rin' walking down the road
I once loved a woman, a child I'm told
I give her my heart but she wanted my soul
But don't think twice, it's all right

I'm walkin' down that long, lonesome road, babe
Where I'm bound, I can't tell
But goodbye's too good a word, babe
So I'll just say fare thee well
I ain't sayin' you treated me unkind
You could have done better but I don't mind
You just kinda wasted my precious time
But don't think twice, it's all right

Desire


Sex is the consolation you have
when you can't have love.

Tarot

This is definitely a time of deep transformation,
likely to be both inner and outwardly in your life.
Situations, things, and people that you have counted on or gotten used to
may no longer be available to you in quite the same way as they once were,
and this transition can be difficult for some people.

Wishlist

I want a girl because I want to bring her up
so that she shan't make the mistakes I've made.
When I look back upon the girl I was I hate myself.
But I never had a chance.
I'm going to bring up my daughter so that she's free
and can stand on her own feet.
I´m not going to bring a child into the world,
and love her, and bring her up,
just so that some man may want to sleep with her so much
that he's willing to provide her with board and lodging for the rest of her life.
W. Somerset Maugham - The Painted Veil

Choices (2)

Belle: You could have had happiness if you could just believe
that someone would want you, but you coudn't take the chance.
Rumpelstiltskin: That's a lie.
Belle: You're a coward, and no matter how thick you make your skin,
that doesn't change.
Rumpelstiltskin: I'm not a coward, dearie. It's quite simple, really:
my power means more to me than you.
Belle: No, it doesn't. You just don't think I can love you.
Now you've made your choice, and you're going to regret it forever.
All you'll have is an empty heart and a chipped cup.
Once Upon a Time

Soundtracks: Loneliness

Loneliness in a crowd of people
was the worst kind of loneliness,
but she couldn't help it.
