First Time You Fall In Love Poem by Kristi Wilkinson

Sitting here with my heavy head
Held in my hands,
Wondering what it is
That would make her understand.

She is the only one for me,
Somehow I’ve got to let it show.
I sit here on the edge of the water,
Feeling so very low.

Gave all of me to her,
Taking every blow.
The more she hurt me,
The more love I would show.

One big happy family is where
I thought we were headed,
Seems as though she lied
About her being that committed

Where do I go from here
Never letting her off my mind
It’s a deep dark secret
I keep buried inside

No one would understand,
Telling me to move on.
If only life were that easy,
The first time you fall in love.
