First Love
First Love
How exactly first love
Feels like?
Like really...
The heart skips a beat
Or our personal chats
Suddenly grow into bounds and leaps
Is it that butterfly-thing
In stomach
Or the sudden smile on the face?
Even if you have had enough
Heart racing and breathlessness,
How exactly do we feel
Do you feel numb and shy
Or being together in dreams?
Does it lie in scribbling names?
Is it confusion
Or blankness when near comes the face?
First love. . .
How do I define it?
Not simply a feeling
But also something 9-month relation
of mother-child
You ought to understand
Mother's love, the first love
We always miss
Counting exes and flames
Kiddish it seems!
