The Heart Beats

You’re the one
As if there is only 
One

Falling into love
Becoming a
Union of

Two
Dissolving into 
One

Is losing ourselves
The way to know
We are in love? 

If being in love 
Is to be lost, then 
In love we must have been

For there 
Is where 
I lost you

I loved you, and
You loved me, 
We said then

Now with another
Is your new love less
For having loved me then?

Is the love we shared negated
By being redirected 
Toward someone new?

Where does the love go
When the loving is done?

Do we ever really fall out of love?
Are we ever really in love?
