First Love

You meet him, and instantly he is your new obsession.

He’s kind, sweet, caring thoughtful.

He’s a poet with words; a real Shakespeare.

He’s admirable, ambitious, soft-hearted, sincere.

You feel warmth when you look in his eyes.

You feel yourself tingle as you hold his hand.

He makes you laugh and you make him smile.

You treasure him as you would your greatest possession.

You love the way he says your name and every word that follows.

When you embrace, your hearts beat as one.

You get butterflies by just seeing him.

You feel comfort through his presence,

And you feel joy through his touch.

He is your one and only,

The rock on which you depend.

You know that with him there are always firsts;

Always exciting new things to discover and share.

He seems to understand your ever though and you with his.

You think that with him it must last for eternity,

But you soon find yourself discovering,

That the hardest part of saying hello was knowing that there was a goodbye.
