First Love

I know why I’m not over you

I know why I can’t let you go

It’s because you were the first

The first one I saw myself with

Not in the short run but the long

You were there for me

Took care of me

You listened to me

And told me how proud you were

You wanted me to be great

And you hoped for the best

But mostly because

I was ready to move for you

I saw a ring from you

And the day I heard

About your accident my heart cried

I saw a life with you

I saw us

I know why I’m not over you

Because I truly loved you

Written with such a tender voice...cherishing the memories of what sounds to be a true first love. Only you know the whole story, but here you have made my heart ache with you.

While he was my first true love and moving on was one of the hardest parts of life. I have in the years since, learned that we would have never been truly happy and complete with each other. He was the first love whose made to be your first love but not your forever love. Thank you...
