Longing lingers, and thoughts of you never fade. A brief longing has no end. If I'd known love would bind my heart so, why did we ever meet?
"But you've got my heart in your grasp."
"There was a beauty whose face I saw and could never forget. One day apart, and I long for her like a madman. The phoenix flies across the four seas in search of its mate, yet its beloved is nowhere to be found by the eastern wall."
"If she's not by the eastern wall, go look by the west, south, and north walls!"
"But my wife can climb walls."
Note: This isn't a palace-intrigue story. It's sweet romance, feel-good wish fulfillment, and fantasy.
Theme: The Book of Songs. (That's the dividing line.) I hope you'll support me and point out my flaws so I can improve.
