unspoken memories?

Till the sun grows cold and the
stars grow old.

love for each other must start.

"A good marriage is that in which each appoints the other guardian of his solitude." 
Rainer Maria Rilke

Let me not to the marriage of true mind
Admit impediments. Love is not love
Which alters when it alteration finds
Or bends with the remover to remove.
O, no, it is an ever fixed mark
That looks on tempests and is never shaken,
It is the star to every wandering bark,
Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken.
Love's not time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks
Within his bending sickle's compass come,
Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,
But bears it out even to the edge of doom:
If this be error, and upon me proved,
I never writ, nor no man ever loved. 
William Shakespeare, 
Sonnet 116

If there is such a thing as a good marriage,
it is because it resembles friendship rather
than love.

loved for ourselves, or rather, loved in spite of ourselves.

but she is beautiful because you love her.

The way to love anything is to realize it may be lost.
