True Love Never Dies-Ten Word Challenge

As evanescent as the mist
                                    One morning disappeared in a boat 
                                                 Without any trace
                                    Leaving a plethora of remembrances 
                              That persisted in the mind as a dulcet sound

                                 A blue sapphire necklace was the symbol of
                                      An invisible bond through the eternity 
                                             Doubts grew in the heart
                                            Separating two twin souls
                                          That once swore love forever

                                  Keepsake letters were the symbol of the 
                              Idyllic romance that bloomed under the moon
                                When sparks ignited, beginning gazes with
                                 Rhapsodic rapture conveying feelings not 
                                               Expressed with words

                               The chrysalis emerged from the cocoon as a 
                                  Beautiful butterfly attracted to the fire 
                                     A diamond ring will be the talisman
                                         That felicity transcends time 
                                              With a radiant smile
