“I just need your star for a day.”

“I need the star shine of your heavenly eyes, after the day's great sun.”

“We're all eating stars! Every day! What a marvelous annulus of accident and need.”

“I need you, Jess, with everything in me I need you, not just now or tonight, but forever. You're my North Star and Safe Harbor and all those other sappy clichés, but above all else, you are my dragon slayer. I need you tonight. I need you in my arms where I can feel your heart beating in time with mine. Just hold me and… and let me hold you in return.”

“I don't need you on your back for anything Martise, unless you want to go star-gazing with me.”

“I need so much the quiet of your love, After the day's loud strife; I need your calm all other things above, After the stress of life. I crave the haven that in your dear heart lies, After all toil is done; I need the starshine of your heavenly eyes, After the day's great sun!”
