love at the airport

"...There was one couple in particular I studied as if I had stumbled across the Discovery channel during my television surfing. They were in their early-to-mid thirties and were joined in an embrace that would have lasted the length of their flight had either of them let it continue. At last the male let go, ran his hand over his head to perhaps brush sweat from his brow or gesture in some subconscious release of anxiety. This man took off his hat, as well as the girl’s and then regarded his loved one as if the removal of these articles of clothing granted some previously unseen perception of the woman before him. The two soon returned to an embrace in which they never kissed, but merely held one another in their arms, crediting the other with this physical contact in hopes the feeling would last the length of their time apart."

Love perfectly visualized.
