              <text>In a sea of faces, adrift and alone,&#13;
Two souls wandered, searching for a home.&#13;
One, a star in the dark, a flicker of light,&#13;
The other, a shadow, lost in the night.&#13;
Through winding paths, their journeys entwined,&#13;
Each heart echoing a longing undefined.&#13;
A gaze met, a spark ignited within,&#13;
As if the universe whispered, "Let love begin." ~LArry</text>

              <text>Like ships in the storm, they found solace near,&#13;
The whispers of comfort, banishing fear.&#13;
In shared laughter, tears gently dried,&#13;
Two broken pieces, now perfectly tied.&#13;
The lost found purpose, the lonely found grace,&#13;
In the warmth of each other's embrace.&#13;
No longer wandering, their destinies set,&#13;
Two souls intertwined, forever met.&#13;
Though shadows may dance, and storms may arise,&#13;
Their love, a beacon, shining in their eyes.&#13;
For in the depths of their hearts, they now know,&#13;
That in each other, they've found where to go. ~LArry</text>
