Better to have loved and lost?
Sometimes I question if it is better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all.

Love has such a steep debt to it. Once you have taken that chance you will never be free of its cost if you lose it.

Even today has been a day of lamenting old love. The realization that to move on from one you love you have to hurt them.

Does this make life better or richer in some aspect? Cursed for eternity to carry the burden of those you've lost and those you have hurt?

Can we ever be free of our shadow?

I hear a resounding "no".
