Dense Caption

The image displays pixelated white text on a dark gray background reading: "if you love always someone, if not they let them go never were. if they come back they." Blue hearts appear at positions corresponding to the 'o' in 'you', 'love', and 'always'. Purple hearts are positioned over the 'e' in 'someone', 'not', and 'were'. Yellow hearts occupy spaces near 'come' and 'back'. The text is partially obscured by heart symbols. Pixelation creates a low-resolution, retro digital appearance.

Description
