Bathed in the haze of love, we mistakenly believe
That we are vitally important to another
Or that we cannot live without
The subject of our affection
Shying away from the reality
That life presents difficult choices
Sometimes, sowing love
Only to set it adrift
As the outpouring of love stops
Emptiness grows
Creating a gap, that may
In time, be filled by another
