A Reason to Love You
by Trelcena Peters
They met as teenagers in the soft light of youth, when forever still felt possible. She gave her heart without holding back. He took it, quietly, without ever asking her to stop.
But life-cruel, chaotic, and unrelenting-ripped them apart. Different schools. Different paths. Different marriages. Years passed, but the memory of that first love never faded. It burned, silently, underneath the surface of ordinary lives.
They became friends again. Then emotional strangers. Then soulmates who never stopped orbiting each other.
She gave everything: her time, her loyalty, her poetry, her pain. And just when it seemed like love would never return to her the way she gave it-he came back.
