         <description><![CDATA[<div>I look across the cafe and see a couple. <strong>They</strong>&nbsp;</div><div>Look happy, like they <strong>are</strong></div><div>in love. Love is sculpted not just there, <strong>carved</strong>&nbsp;</div><div>And <strong>muscled</strong>.</div><div>When they look <strong>into</strong></div><div>Each other's eyes I see hope, <strong>something</strong></div><div>so <strong>solid</strong>.</div><div>Like a million stars, like they can reach <strong>something</strong>&nbsp;</div><div>A million miles away. I can tell their love is <strong>true</strong>.</div><div><br></div><div><br><br><br></div>]]></description>
