Tethered To A Memory

Love reveals your inner beauty, invisible to the naked eye; then buffs it up until it shines for all to see! The goal of your heart is not the pursuit of love, but to find your soulmate; within whom love awaits. Fueling feelings, dreams and fantasies harbor hope; when all seems lost. For both passion and desire linger within a broken heart: like the scent of a faded rose, tethered to a memory. Hugs, caresses, and kisses, have a magical effect; conjuring up a smile: that makes reality less severe, at least for a little while. And still, hope guides fate as you chase that elusive better tomorrow. While today slips unnoticed into the memories of yesterday; like an unfulfilled wish, forever lost to time.

Hi Emile: You have defined love so eloquently especially; "conjuring up a melody that makes reality disappear". Keep yourself safe from the virus!
