Self

by ccrle

Do not get so lost in another's soul that you forget what your own is made of. Sure, let yourself float in the beautiful feeling that is love, but make sure you do not forget how to swim in the process. Too often we are told that love is selfless, but not that it is sometimes ephemeral. And once you lose it, all you will have left will be a lifetime of memories and yourself. So do allow yourself to love, but remember to love yourself first.

I have yet to learn how to follow my own advice, but this poem came from a place of self love.
