Lovingly Quoted

Today, September 15th, is my birthday and as a very selfish present to myself () I want to hold a contest based on my favorite subject: LOVE
I have found some beautiful love quotes and I would love to read beautiful poetry based around these quotes. I know you guys have it in you to write amazing poetry as there is a LOT of amazing talent here at AP.

Here are a few of the quotes I found; please, in your author's notes, state which one you used, have tons of fun, and amaze me!

1. "Love is my permission to be who I am, no inhibitions because you understand." --Chrisette Michele

2. "Someone asked me what I loved most about life. I smiled and replied, 'The person that I'm with right now.'" --Source Unknown

3. "It's never too late to live happily ever after!" --submitted by Denise

4. "Explaining how much I love you is like explaining how water tastes, it's impossible!" --submitted by Tia

5. "In my thoughts of you there is an underlying love that is present in every word, every glimpse I hope you feel it as I do, for it is what I am and ever I will be."
Venturer

RULES:
No bashing of anyone or their poetry
No sticky caps, street lingo, "chat" speak
No profanity of any sort
Enjoy yourselves

  11. On what basis does love take place? Does it come by true feelings of affection or by mere physical attraction? That is the question that man will ponder. What powers this force that allows the human race to continue? Is it a
