The legacy of a lost love

A precious find,
from ancient time,
an elixir of life.

Two hearts were bind,
strong bond undenied,
pure love so divine.

Pledging their life,
to tears they hide,
to fears they fight.

So hard they tried,
with hopes in mind,
but fate's unkind.

What's left behind,
an affair that shines,
a legacy of time.
