Goodbye My First Love

To my lover from long ago, You were the one to set my heart aglow I wish I wasn't so young back then When I knew so little of men Hurt and pain was all I could see Hence twas only heartache that could be You with your scruffy hair And clothes worn threadbare As u went thru life with seemingly hardly a care Your lovely mischievous smile Was blessed to know you, if just for a while To heal every woe you dearly tried, Through many days I continuously cried. Thank you for all the tears you dried, When with life I could hardly cope. Thank you for holding out on hope. Thank you for holding me so close, As my darkness upon me did impose. I pray you never let your dreams die That you let you soul free to fly That with the seasons passing by U know the best in your future does lie I'm so glad to have known you true Even though I was mostly so blue You and your brainy head And all the books you have read Days spent on the beach As in each other we did beseech Long walks under skies azure So many memories mostly a blur I'm so sorry I hurt you so And hope that you have truly let go That I don't as a shadow hover As you attempt to trust another To give your absolute all And leave the pasts shrieking call Thankyou for everything For all the love you did bring Thank you for loving me And helping me set myself free :)
