Bindweed Love

This love was born from a reflection of something so deep, it felt impossible to forget.

No matter how much I tried to let it go, it kept resurfacing.
Again and again, like a quiet rebirth I could not escape.

I wanted to forget you.
I wanted to move on.

But like bindweed, every attempt was futile against its hold.

And maybe this is the kind of love that can only exist in dreams.

This is where it began.
