Trigger Warning // First Love, Miscarriage, Heartbreak
--
My first love –
had red hair
and hazel eyes.
(I guess that's why
everybody warned
me;
gingers are
considered
heartless after all.)
My first love –
was my first
at
everything.
My first love –
was my very
best friend
for years.
My first love –
met me in my mess,
and made me the
woman I am today.
My first love –
gave me the
confidence I
desperately
lacked at
fifteen,
sixteen,
seventeen.
My first love –
gave me my
very first
true love.
(who was taken
from me too
soon.)
My first love –
has hurt me
more than I
deserved.
My first love –
once told me
that
he was the only
person who
would ever put
up with me,
my mouth
my attitude
my mood swings,
the only person who
would ever love me.
he was wrong.
My first love –
taught me everything
I could ever know
about love
even if he couldn't
give
it
to
me.
To my first love –
thank you,
for everything;
the four years
we spent
together;
and the pain
you gave me.
I'm exactly where
I always needed
to be.
