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

Wonderful loving words AP.
Andy
Thanks for reading and your compliment Andy. ๐น
A fine write AP. Of course, KP doesn't know St Val. I sent here a sympathy card for today 'in memory' of the days before I married her. heehee.
I trust you sent her more Botox right? ๐
Yep lol.
I think people`s first love always has a place in their hearts, a beautiful write.
That's the case with me Poetic. Thanks. ๐๐
You are very welcome
Maybe look from a different perspective that if you were together the poetry may never have been born. ๐น Your love is pure my friend. ๐
I think my poetry for Sharon was inevitable either way Teddy. She just has that effect on me. Thanks Teddy. ๐น๐
Beautiful poetry for Sharon. How special she is. If only she knew how much she is loved AP. Have a wonderful day dear poet.
Oh she knew from the letter I left in her school locker in 8th grade before she left for Los Angeles. What she doesn't know is that my love for her has grown every day since September 6, 1967. But I did tell her in that letter that I'd always love her. Thanks Cassie. ๐๐
You've still got it don'tcha brother .. & who can blame ya .. ๐๐น๐
In September it will be 58 years and I knew at first sight of her she was the love of my life. Its not about owning the gold but having been part of something that not many people get the chance to be part of. Also when someone sets a benchmark so high that no one else can come close to, you know its something very special. I knew that on day one. Thanks N. ๐๐
There is nothing more perfect than a love that never happened. A most lovely write.
Oh, it definitely happened soren. I'm living proof of it. ๐๐Thanks for reading and your compliment.
I'm sure many of us have at least one Valentine that never really was... the one that got away! A poem that will jog a few memories! Nicely written, my friend!
Thank you Robert. Hope you spend a wonderful day with your Valentine. ๐น
