I remember feeling loved.

I also remember when it was taken away from me.

When I lost the love I thought I would spend my life with, when everything I loved became one person,

how could I want anything else?

So engrained in my mind my life of love with you.

Now impossible, never to be the same as it once was.

I remember losing your love.
I remember searching for you in others, searching for what we were.

Nobody could match you, nobody was good enough.

Then I felt love again.
Love from someone who needed it as much as I did.

Two lost souls.

I realized I didn't need to try and replicate it anymore, there was more to love.

I was taught a new kind of love, one that accepted myself.

I felt found.

But I knew the love would die, shadowed by my paranoia and doubts I knew it would cease.

But I tried to hang onto that love. I remember when I first felt it, I remember when I lost it.

So lost again am I without love, I know I am flawed but that's not enough. I just want to feel like I am lucky again.
