Firsts

Your first love,
So innocent, so untainted,

Your first kiss,
So real, so pure,

Your first heart break,
So painful, so blinding,

Your first real "touch",
So gentle, so intimate,

Your first commitment,
So serious, so true,

Your first real friendship,
So supportive, so trusting,

Your first lost friendship,
So bitter, so damaging,

Your first mistake,
So daunting, so hard hitting,

Your firsts make up the person you are,
The person you were, and the person you will be,
Your firsts make up your life,
The experiences make you, you.
