My First Love

In the depths of my heart, a fire did ignite,

When I beheld you, bathed in love's sweet light.

From that moment on, you became my guiding star,

My first love's enchantment, no matter how afar.

With every stolen glance, my heartbeat would race,

Your smile, a warm embrace, I longed to embrace.

Fingers intertwined, as we walked hand in hand,

In a world of dreams, our own secret land.

In each whispered word, a melody would flow,

Our love's symphony, only the two of us know.

Gazing at the moon, we shared secrets untold,

A bond so precious, more valuable than gold.

But as time moved on, reality took its toll,

And the innocence of youth, began to unfold.

We learned that love, though beautiful and grand,

Can sometimes slip away, like grains of sand.

Yet the memory of you, my first love so true,

Forever etched in my heart, never to subdue.

A lesson learned, that love can both mend and break,

Leaving behind scars, but also strength in its wake.

Though first love may fade, it paves the way,

For love yet to come, brighter with each passing day.

For deep within my soul, the ember still remains,

Whispering of the magic, that first love sustains.

So I cherish the moments we had, my dear,

For they shaped me into who I am, crystal clear.

And though time may blur the details over time,

First love's imprint, forever etched in rhyme.
