First Love

First Love

The shadows on my wall

that were my haunting

have flickered and died,

been quelled

by the gentling of your heart.

The screams in my skull

that tortured my mind

have fallen silent,

calmed by the

soothing of your sweet kiss.

The devils that tore at my soul

till my sanity drained

have been cast out,

dispersed by

the breeze of your soft breaths.

So here I lay in rebirth

open and naked in my deliverance

knowing for the first time

ever in my life,

I really understand

the meaning of love.

Simply lovely, John! It has the wonderful sound of a lad's heart that has been swept away by a worthy lady. When men find that one, they really are transformed! Well done!

Tis but a true tale and worthy she is indeed. Transformed I am. Many thanks for your kindness QSS.
