First Love

By: Cassandra M Dietrick

Love is full of hopes and dreams
Someday wishing they will come true,
But heartaches are full of hurt and schemes
Leaving you out in the cold and blue.

Always keep your heart in close and safe
Don't let anybody in close enough to take,
That feeling that takes your breath away
Will be stolen and will break.

It hurts to think he's no longer there
Someone to hold me and never let me go,
Someone in the end I thought would care
But even though I'm told different, the answer I know.

I try to move on and forget my past
The flirting, the loving, and the heartbreak,
But the image always seems to stick and last
And that smile I seem to have is so fake.

I try to enjoy my life because I am so young
I didn't expect to feel this hurt in the end,
How I miss the feel of his tongue
And the I Love You letters we used to send.

He was my everything and more
My boyfriend, my best friend, my life,
Still his smile I love to adore
I had my dreams of one day being the perfect wife.

Now that it is over and everything is faded and away
My heart shattered yet the love will still remain,
Tomorrow is a new and full day
But I wish that things would have just stayed the same.
