First Love

I had never been in love 

But when I met you everything changed 

But people told me 

“It’s a sin to want her”

“You can’t be with her” 

“You're not allowed to love her”

But how can I not love her when she made me feel all the things I promised myself I would never feel?

How can I not love her when I didn’t feel numb around her and when she fixed all the broken parts of me? 

How can I not love her when my showers didn’t sting anymore, the only tears were out of happiness, and my smile was finally real


I had soon realized I had fallen in love with every single part of her 

The way her hair would perfectly drape over her face, the way her eyes would look into mine and tell a thousand stories, the way her hands perfectly intertwined with mine, everything, she was perfect…

But in the end, I guess I just loved it too much…

I was scared, we were young and I didn’t mean to fall in love the way I did and I hope you didn’t mean to hurt me the way you did 

And I guess I always knew that deep down we would never last but sometimes I still catch myself dreaming about you and me... 

I guess the heart was made to be broken...

but we sure had one heck of a love story, didn't we?
