Measuring loves

 It is hard to say who I love more

 

I  guess it is not a question of more or less

The question is not objective,

it is subjective

It is about how I feel about

All each person


I used to think

that I love them so much

A new one will never take that place

That I will always be ready to drop

The new life

Like a hot potato

If they need me

 

Indeed, the opposite has happened

And I am ready to drop them

Like a hot potato

If she needs me

 

That doesn't mean

I love them any less

It just means that I feel 

Duty and rseponsibility

Differently

That I feel more responsible

For a helpless one

But they are still them

For whom I will give up everything


And where is he

For whom I will drop nothing

Give up nothing

I don't think I will 

And yet, without him

There is no happiness

There is no solace


And yet, even with 

Happiness and solace

I am still 

Undone 

Still soulless

Without

You


And when I think of

The one person

Who is in my soul

The one person

Whose happiness matters to me

The one friend who I wish to talk to every day

The one  who takes my thoughts

Puts them into order

And gives them back to me

The one who is at my center

Despite

Those who come and go

Those who I will serve

Those who make me happy

That one

That one is only you
