So many people lose their first love. That's not what the Bible says.
The Bible says, thou hast left thy first love.

You don't lose it. I've got an old coat. Must have been 20 years.

I lost it this week. Boy, was I upset. It's out of style, but it's good
to me.

Keeps me warm. I was glad when I found it. I lost it.

But the address to the people there in the book of the revelation is the
people who left their first love. Something else got them and they gave
all their consuming passion and desire to that one thing that they got
hold of again.
