i thought there was only “little prince”

some months ago i got a book on love poems for doing charity works ( yeas, i am capable of that…don’t argue with me people ). pretty obviously it’s a collection of all these familiar and unfamiliar love poems by familiar and unfamiliar poets.i won’t go into great details about how these works are good, ok, or super "yuck" they make you nauseous. but there’s this little work by antoine de saint exupery that appeals to me. i think it’s mature, has no frills and capable of hitting anyone on bull’s eye … here goes :

             Love does not consist

             in gazing at each other

             but in looking outward

             in the same direction.
