The lingering scent. The look they'd share, holding the same desire, but never acting. His reason for being. The overwhelming cravings she gives rise to. The unquenchable desire to kiss her. The want to hold her. The true happiness. The natural bond they shared. The pleasant times they spend together. The need to feel her lips. The words passed over silence. The euphoric moment of realising her love for him. The unparalleled beauty of her very soul. The requited love. The undying, the perpetual warmth of her body beside him. The impermanent, the ephemeral warmth of her ghost beside him.
