Lost Love

I’m afraid to fall in love again
because it feels disloyal.

Like if I do it meant I didn’t love him as much as I said I did
as much as I know I did.

But what else is there to do?

I loved a boy
in very many ways we grew up together.

The difference is his demons out ran him
and I had to stick around to face mine.

That doesn’t mean I love him any less for moving forward.

      1. You render me emotionally compromised in less than fifty words – I assure you that’s a compliment!
