To My Wife

"I have loved only you, surrendered my whole self reckless to you and nobody else. That I want you to love me back and show it to me. That I love the way you hold me, how close you let me be to you. I like your fingers on and on, lifting, turning. I have watched your face for a long time now, and missed your eyes when you went away from me."
from Toni Morrison, Jazz

Great quote...I love Toni Morrison...her books are facinating and her style one of a kind.I especially loved Song of Solomon.
