First Love Poem by Jacob Spath

Do you remember your first love, And how it made you feel. And when that person came around, It felt like time stood still.
I remember being shy, And unable to tell her. When I looked deep into her eyes, I couldn't find the words.
Now that I think back, It should have been easy, I should have said 'I love you' And told her how deeply.
That when she left there came a pain, and an overwhelming loneliness. That I thought about her everyday, And the best way to confess, the deepest of emotions, That I have ever felt, And I never thought it possible, That my ice cold heart would melt.
I remember butterflies, And a tingling in my spine.
That you had the most amazing eyes, And that I blushed when they met mine.
All it took was your smile, To make everything okay No matter how bad I felt, It brightened up my day.
I remember how love songs, Started to make sense And for the first time in my life I wanted to listen, To every word they sang, And I know I sang them too, Because when on the radio they came, It reminded me of you.
