First Love Poem by ivor or ivor.e hogg
First Love
I’ve been around the block a time or two.
Long since; I lost my childish innocence.
For what I lost I gained some recompense.
One of the bitter lessons life has taught.
I loved her: She loved me or so I thought.
Her practiced lies defeated my defence.
I fell because I lacked experience.
I was a toy to her just something new
to play with for a while and then discard.
I was seduced, betrayed and cast aside
to satisfy her selfish vanity.
I learned to cope but found the lesson hard.
So now I view romance suspiciously.
Great poem, i like it, very explanatory and deep i know i am young, but i have felt the same you're all numb inside, like your soul is frozzen then you build a huge wall with gards to protect yourself nice poem.
I really enjoyed this write, Ivor. Beautifully explained and produced. Loved it. Love and hugs Ernestine XXX

Hi Poet, Sad and Beautiful poem.... This reminds me of a song....'The First Cut Is The Deepest, ' It is sad, but it happens to most of us. Because our hearts have been broken, when we find our true love, we understand its beauty, it is a never ending gift, most precious. Brilliant, poetry......'ENJOYED'
