First Love

First Love
I was in love
I was elated
and devastated
all at once
It was full on
and complicated
just the way it's
supposed to be
with first love
I was a fool
just like old poets
writing sonnets
in the snow

It was a mess
melodramatic
and there you have it
first love
Then I grew up and realized
that although first love never dies
there comes a point you wonder why
like oh my God
I can't believe I fell so hard
All for what I wear these scars?
But I guess it was worth the while
cause I had a first love
I was in love
I was elated
and devestated
all at once
It was full on
and complicated
just the way it's supposed to be
with first love
First love
I was in love
I was elated
First love
