My First

My first love
was you & only you
and when our lips touched
i knew it was true

the way your eyes
were full of light
and how your smile
felt so right

when you held me close
and you would always boast
on how i was the best
and better than the rest

you knew it was forever
until you found out
about the girl who loved you too
and that it was no longer
what i thought we were about.

you spoke of her name
once or twice a day
still loving me
as you would quietly say

when we broke up
i wanted to give her a chance
i wasn't mad
but i still felt bad
because i knew that you wouldn't last
