She was like water
With ripples and waves flowing to a path already made.
He was like a moon
Silent and ever-changing
Making her dance as per his mood.
She was like fire
With flames wild and free, spreading light and warmth wherever she is.
He was like wind
Strong, ferocious and carefree
And can make her flicker at his whim.
She was like stars
Full of shine and sparkle
Brightening and calming the dark sky.
He was like a cloud
Dark and protective
Eager to cover her from peering eye.
She was all calm, kind and foreseeable,
he was all sort of gray and unpredictable.
She is the morning, and he is the midnight.
She is the rain, and he is the desert.
No one can ever think they can be together.
But they are like the sea and land for each other.
Even though they are nearby, they seek each other.
Love is not always perfect and enough, sometimes its intense and rough.
For neither is complete without the other.
Hearts and Minds

Thankfully you didn’t test positive. I don’t know what’s happening around. Every day the situation is getting worse. In fact this year seems more pathetic than last year.
I hope your relative is not serious and recover soon. Stay strong HS. Sending all the good wishes on the way.
