Love Can't Be Granted

Love torches your heart like a burning coal; fueling feelings that inflames the soul. Bringing happiness, to where there was none; love eclipses time, and outshines the sun. Igniting tinder, smoldering within; love supplies the spark as your dreams begin. Setting imprisoned, fledgling feelings free; love instantly fills hopeful hearts with glee. Love can't be granted, bought, or created; and yet, it alone leaves you elated.
