When I first saw you

When I first saw you,

I was afraid to meet you

When I first met you,

I was afraid to hold you.

When i held you,

I was afraid to kiss you

When I first kissed you,

I was afraid to love you

when I started loving you,

I'was afraid to lose you. 

Now when i have lost you,

I am not afraid of anything.

The first time we kissed

I remember those endless, youth-blessed days

like they were great bursts of color splashed against the sun.

I recall the taste of your lips, how your body would lay

in shared bedrooms of love before we came undone.

Your touch leveled lesser men, and I was broken in half

tormented by a depth of emotion I could not articulate.

I celebrate you in arcs of time, please do not laugh;

these memories possess a value I cannot estimate.


I remember those reckless, grief-stricken, suicidal nights

where we were first spiraling out of control.

I recall every anonymous lover, the ceaseless fights,

the dangerous jockeying between two star-crossed souls.

You left many men behind you, surely there are more to come,

and they will fail to appease you with their hearts.

I explain you in these verses, you left me stunned,

soon to be stripped of all dignity and ripped apart.


Old lover, you do not recognize me now, I am lost

in a previous life you do your best to disavow.

I assure you that I have paid the heaviest cost

for those days when I wanted to live but did not know how.

I silence you now and commit you to the gulf of ages

where old passions recede into shadow and mist.

And you will live forever here in my place of pages,

old before my time, remembering the first time we kissed

the story of me n her.

"Forget her name, forget her face,
Forget her kiss and her warm embrace.
Forget the love that you once knew,
Remember she has someone new.
Forget her when they played ur song,
Remember when u cried all night long.
Forget how close u once were,
Remember she has chosen other,
Forget how u memorized her walk,
Forget the way she used to talk,
Forget the things she used to say,
Remember she has gone away,
Forget her laugh forget her grin,
Forget the dimples on her chin,
Forget the way she holds u tight,
Remember she’s with him tonight.
Forget the time that went so fast,Forget the love that moved, it’s past.
Forget she said she’d leave u never,Remember she’s gone forever".

But she had to break my heart for me to know What true love really is”

“You can say anything about me.
As u please……………………
But I am what I am And that’s something,
That u can never be “.

Over n over U lied,
Over n overI cried(I don’t know y)”
