True Love A Metaphor

Plz copy and paste to goggle, it will not post on youtube right but this link will take you to youtube. Weird I know. Thank you https://youtu.be/c4_zPPspvnY?si=H9wYM5NebqyeTZCh  


I breathe in your fragrance and it becomes nostalgic, like a myth from a story book, I will bottle and bury it deep within my heart forever and always. Unmistakably, undeniably an undoubtedly        
I love you, and as such is beyond contestation.                            
                             
As if a prophecy of Ill-fated love had been foretold to me        
I drop down to my knees helpless and begin to weep. I know you are leaving me, as many before you have done, never to return until you are lifeless, until your body lay dead at my feet.                  
                   
I whisper into his ear softly do not forget me, then tell him to take this and keep it safe. I place something wet into his outstretched hand and walk away. Innocently he uncurls his fingers and looks down to find a blood-filled stain in the palm of his hand.              
             
Now frightened and lost for words, he looks away for a few moments then starts to cry, streaks of fear now scar his cheeks. Bewildered he wipes his face while walking back to my side and asks, my love …?  I wipe the tears from my eyes and say, you have been granted the greatest gift of all, a piece of my heart for all of eternity, remember me my love, remember always.
