First Love
A collection of love letters in a heart shaped box
that I kept for many years,
reminding me of the times we met in secret,
and moments we spent in your loving arms
wrapped up like a gift in your embrace.
I have never forgotten your smiling face,
and your romantic charms,
or the butterfly kisses traced on my lips.
We parted in youth going our separate ways,
I thought of you often for many days and lonely nights,
wishing you would of stayed from memory to reality.
All I have left in this red velvet box,
with satin lining ,and emotional thoughts
are those wonderful times of remembrance.
