Affinity

The warmth
of your smile speaks
of your joy; the love in
your eyes mirrors the sentiment
bestowed.




Comfort

Humble
emotion creeps
up again, warming the
heart and soothing the lost spirit
once more.




Preserve

Hold and
revisit the
best of memories as
often as needed during time
apart.




Renew

Sometimes
the most vital
task in a whole day is
that moment we breathe deeply and
recharge.




Simplify

Never
make anything
harder than it has to
be; life, on its own, will provide
challenge.




Unbound

Timely
true sentiment
flows once again throughout
the unfettered body and soul;
breathe free.
