Love isn't an act, its a whole life.
it's staying with her now because she needs you;
its knowing you and she will still care about each other
with daydreams, fights and futures - when all that is on the shelf and done with.
Love - why, I'll tell you what love is: it's you at seventy five and her at seventy one,
each of you listening for the other's step in the next room,
each afraid that a sudden silence, a sudden cry,
could mean a lifetime's talk is over.
- Brian Moore
