Black And White

First Love

You made me smile.

Something I'd not done in a while.

My heart felt this sudden spark.

Feelings that were hidden deep in the dark.

Never thought I'd fall so deep

and still have the urge to weep.

You made a part of me whole

where life had taken its toll.

That which was broken

was healed through words unspoken.

You held me tight

and assured me that everything would be alright.

A part of me felt mended -

As if I had never ended.

A simple touch of your hand

felt like the ocean running through sand.

Is any love worth fighting for

before one decides to close the door?

That, my love, depends on how high you wish to soar

beyond the existence of your own core.
