“There was a name. That was all. A name upon a piece of paper. The beginnings of a letter, started but never finished and pushed into a drawer and then forgotten about as all old and unhappy things had been forgotten with the coming of that spring. Yet, after the name had been read, and a false seed of suspicion planted, the sun of their happiness dipped behind a bank of storm clouds and the light which had bathed them faded. It did not fade immediately. Nor in a way which was recognisable at the start. It faded in long silences and crossed arms, in questions which came from nowhere and were answered awkwardly for their strangeness. It faded in kisses avoided and tired sighs, then finally in absences and then all was passed into darkness, though neither knew it until a moment in which they both turned to look for what once they had loved, and found it was gone.” LoveTrustJealousyBreakupsEndingsLoss Of LoveEnding Relationships Book:The Mind Is Its Own Place Source: The Mind Is Its Own Place

“His love, like all loves that are simple and pure, had made it unthinkable that she should have any desire other than to be her best self, for him. Yet a love like that is like the keystone in the main arch of a great building which when removed causes all else to collapse into the dust.” LoveAbsenceLost LoveBest Self Book:From Whence The Rivers Run Source: From Whence The Rivers Run
