The ones that got away
Seem to be the most memorable
The ones your heart holds dearest
The only loss endurable
Whatever the reason
The connection missed the chance
Two hearts lost in time
Never to have that first dance
The first kiss
That never came
Other loves
Just not the same
Oh, the Valentine’s
They would’ve been
The roses and poems read
Love so sweet when falling in
Many Valentines may come and go
But none so sweet as the first
The one who reached the hearts core
The only one to quench the hearts thirst
As the years pass
Memories will have to do
Subtle whispers of
I love you
