Poem Written For Others

A Certain First Love

It seems just like yesterday that we said our last goodbye
And each time I hear your voice I want to ask why
But something inside of me keeps me from asking what I'm
feeling
Although I may not speak up, these thoughts continue reeling

Round and round my head spins
I never give up, you never give in
It's relationships like these that keep me holding on
And if this were a game of chess, you'd be the king, and me
only the pawn

Fun and games, were as how it started
Slowly changes and new games is how we parted
But every now and then, when I hear your voice
My heart skips a beat, and I know it's not by choice

I try to stand tall, keep my dignity at hand
But you hold onto me, I give in, and I don't understand
But something inside of me tells me that I don't need to
For everything within me feels right when I'm near you

And while I trust that feeling, I know I feel wierd when
you let me go
But because this is how we've always been I choose to not
let that show
I won't deny that when you leave me I don't feel a little
empty
And the urge to follow you is undeniably tempting

But it seems as though, these breaks seem to keep getting
farther apart
And it hurts less, when I realize your the one that will
never depart
If I ever need you, I know you'll always be there
Even if I don't need you, I know you'll always care

And I know that when worst comes to worst I'll realize what
it was we shared
And I'll know that nothing could ever change the love that
has forever been there
It seems that it's safe to say we were each other's first
love, and that's how it will always stay
And I can let go of you in a certain sense, knowing that
who ever comes along could never take that away

-That poem I wrote today. It was inspired by my best friend
Leah! Considering I don't have a relationship like that,
but if you do..there you go too. I love you girl!-

Good-bye.
