First Time

First Time

A Poem by Dominique Lambright
"

Feeling this emotionally attached

"

First Time

 

First time ever having something like this

The feeling I get when I’m with you is irreplaceable and meant

When I’m with others it’s you I miss

For all the moments we’ve spent

I believe that falling for you

Has literally changed me

I ignored your feelings at the start, only because I felt something too

Not wanting to leave what I thought was to be

Only realizing I was holding onto something faded

I knew things weren’t the same, they were jaded,

So my walls rose

When I felt I didn’t want anyone to be close,

You came along

All about the physical aspect, this happened to be good fortune,

Then feelings came into play, but I felt they didn’t belong

I didn’t want to feel this way, especially so soon

Shock taking me over on the effect that you have on me, I was in dismay

Then you opened yourself up, something you don’t do

And I realized why I felt this way

It was a rare occurrence like a blue moon

You’re not easy to figure out but I know you’re genuinely good

You make me think of things I wouldn’t normally consider

Things are seen in a whole new perspective in your mind

We have our good times being together and our bad times not seeing eye to eye

We even have our doubts at times, but in the end for me,

I’m glad I was the one you chose to give your heart

And I wouldn’t do anything to break us apart

I would never want to say goodbye…
