Is This Love

I lost it one Spring day beneath an old oak tree
I was just sixteen  and new to love 

He was so insisting I was afraid to lose him
So I agreed to love him for just a little while

I didn’t know that it would hurt so much but 
I just laid there with tears inside my heart.

He held me close to him as my pain subsided 
He whispered in my ear he would be mine forever

I have not seen him for a month do you know 
where he is?
