My First Love

We talk about everything but us
not ever about the old days
the way we touched
how we joked about the silly things
argued over everything swore the other was always right
what happened to the old days
when we first met and you stopped me
you wanted to walk with me
and how I said its a free country you can do whatever you please
whatever happened to the late night conversations
sleepovers
getting yelled at by our parents
why couldn't we just move on let each other be
it seems easier said than done
holding on to memories that cant ever be
loving you always in my heart
finding peace along the way
moving on
no place for either of us in each others lives
how did it come to this
what happened to the promise we made
to stay best friends no matter what
when did it turn so bittersweet
I come away from this with each experience under my belt
good and bad
not always great
few hurts here and there
I'll think of you now and then and remember the few good moments we shared
how it wasn't always easy
yet I loved you more than you'll ever now
a young girl's heart now turning into woman on her way to finding herself and remembering each experience as she takes more steps along the walk of live
I'll always remember you my first love
