There were two doves floating on a silent breeze. So quietly they sung a song (The breeze and the doves, not just the doves were singing). Two lovebirds held hands under a tree. The sun was setting and the sky was slightly pink. Brown dry leaves were blowing in a scattering wind and then their voices rose.

“Look lover! Two doves floating above us.”
“Their song reminds me of you and I.”
“The song of the wind reminds me of you. It’s gentle, but strong at the same time. You are gentle with my lips and other parts of me. Your embrace is strong and I feel safe concealed within you.”
“I am reminded of you by this pink sky. You’re beautiful for a moment and then you fade away, Like me, but I still hold onto the moment. Like you as the moment that I cling to.”
“Even though we fade I’ll hold onto you forever, Even as we fade will I never let go.”
“Me either. Our fingers intwined till we perish.”

Their fingers intwined as easily as he spoke it and they watched eachother’s eyes in the fantasy they made so real.

Yes, tenderness, heart, it is here.

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you.  Joy is a state of mind.
