First Love

I'll ask you to remember your first love, and you would smile

because, for a moment before, you had grasped the meaning of life, found the fountain of youth, and are not afraid of anything in the world.

You might be in the hardest time of your life, at gunpoint or at the end of the rope, you would still smile. For all the tender care, the euphoric hope and the warming memories.

And then you realise that that was it. It ended and you're here. Without him. You would break a little here.










Until you realise that your first love lives forever./ In you.
