Another emotional story of those truncated loves, very well presented by you, @nancybriti. It is a historical case enriched by the imagination of the population of the time, certainly. By the way, it's a story that has been versioned in theatre (musical opera) and cinema. The real stories that impact in their moment, create a certain legendary wake, which makes the truth confused with what was invented. In short, chroniclers, novelists, playwrights or simply popular imagination recreate these cases, generally marked by misunderstanding, prejudice, misfortune, injustice, etc., and turn them into stories that transcend their time and geography. Fictional literature is full of many examples.
The story of the lovers of Teruel has the particularity that the one who dies first is the male; and also the symbolization of the kiss as a provocative element of farewell and reunion through death.
Thanks for your post, as well as @adsactly for its promotion.

Oh, I love that detail you point out at the end of your comment, @josemalavem! The kiss has inspired all literary genres and artistic expressions. Your comment just gave me an idea of how much has been said about this demonstration of love in poetry, I think I'll post about that. Thanks for the idea. Greetings
