First Love

Mystique smile that charmed a cold heart 
like shining jewel in the dark;
A steely heart from very start 
bowed down to glow of her bright spark. 

But in her fleeting memory, 
he's just a man she knew not yet;
No man has shared her reverie,
even her name, she could forget.  

The patient heart waited for long 
till the time she could remember 
their love that's written in a song 
to rouse the spark of her ember. 

Though everyday, he's a stranger 
just like a face that she just saw, 
he vowed to keep her forever;
Through thick and thin, their love would glow.
