Is It Love or Lust?

by Steven

The difference between being wanted and being known.

For a long stretch of his twenties, he could not have told you the difference between wanting a person and loving one, and he built a small, cold religion out of not thinking there was a difference.

Years later, a Nescafé tin on a shelf still holds a ring and an unopened letter in a handwriting he would know in the dark.

This is the story of the women he loved badly, the one who would not save him, and what it took to learn the difference.
