Tears of Love

Can romantic love between two persons in the prime of their adulthood be as tender, as profound, and as meaningful as it is between two young persons in the prime of their youth? If it is possible, what may it look like? Tears of Love is a love story between two adults: Mikha Midas, a philosopher who lives in Jackson, Tennessee, U.S.A., and Noor Lawson, a painter who lives in Windsor, Ontario, Canada. They open their hearts and fall in love with each other by correspondence, which lasts for more than eight years. The reader is introduced to them through the last letters they exchange before they meet. When they feel a strong desire to spend the rest of their lives under the same roof, Noor discovers that she has a brain tumor and that she will die in a few months. Mikha learns this fact after he arrives in Windsor. The wealth of love that was growing explodes and streams into their hearts like an eternal river. The few weeks they spend at the hospital are a celebration of the tenderness, the yearning, the glory, and the grandeur of love.
