In the garden, the Captain of the Guard stared up at the young woman's balcony, watching as she waltzed alone, lost in her dreams. But he knew her thoughts weren't of him.
I was even a little glad that if it wasn’t going to be me she wanted, it was going to be someone who really deserved her.
First of all, I wish you love, and that by loving you may also be loved.
All of us have had this experience. At some point, we have each said through our tears, I’m suffering for a love that’s not worth it. We suffer because we feel we are giving more than we receive. We s...
We've done so much together, wherever I go and whatever I see, I think of you. Newborn babies; the pattern on the plate that you can see under a paper-thin slice of sashimi; fireworks in August. The m...
I loved her the moment I laid eyes on her.She blinked - her thoughts at the time were of anotherI could not win her heart20 years and many others who did.I would have been there,any time - anywhere. I...
I thought that you could hear all my unspoken words.....for I misunderstood the language of my own love was so intense and your ears were so brittle!
I've dreamt of us falling in love and being together in a million different ways, yet I still wake up in the one way without you.
In you i thought i had found,someone to share lifes ups and downs.Friends then lovers, I did it right,each day with you in felt so bright.But i was a fool to think it could last,that for me your heart...

I wanted her to know just how much I loved her while also letting her know that she bore not one particle of blame for not loving me back.But I wouldn’t say that. It was rosepetals I wanted to throw,...
I've decided to take this unrequited love, and quietly put it away in a corner of my heart as a bittersweet page of my youth.

It was inevitable: the scent of bitter almonds always reminded him of the fate of unrequited love. Dr. Juvenal Urbino noticed it as soon as he entered the still darkened house where he had hurried on...
I loved her [Gilberte]; I was sorry not to have had the time and the inspiration to insult her, to hurt her, to force her to keep some memory of me. I thought her so beautiful that I should have liked...
The pain that comes from unrequited love is more than outweighed by the revelation that my heart is not dead.
