Was It Love At First Sight?
Most people have a first love
Or one above all the rest
The one you look back on
Without question, the very best
Every now and then
That rear view mirror beckons
Mesmerized seemingly for hours
While in real time only seconds
Falling in love
Aimlessly head over heels
Rolling along a fast track
In the tunnel of love on greased wheels
For some it started while teenagers
Others as adults just by chance
Some say it won’t last
And for a select few a lifelong dance
No one else in all your life
Touched your heart so deep
And for no one else
Memories so cherished you’ll keep
That special place in your heart
A place reserved for only one
For their heart you crave
Keeps you warm like an internal sun
You’ll hold onto that love
For the rest of your days
As it embodies a benchmark
A heart of only one has made
You’ll remember those early days
An attraction so right
Did you feel weak in the knees?
Was it love at first sight?

I LOVE love and your poem ❤️
Thank you very much. ; )
Good write, that first love is something so special.
Yes Goldfinch, very special. ; )
First Love has a place in your heart like no other and you always remember it. Great job putting it in words.
Thanks lasergraph, I do feel incredibly blessed that I have that gift from Heaven. The gift of loving one girl/woman for as long as I have. And yet, she has no idea that I still do. Thanks for reading and your kind compliment. ; )
Never too young and never too old , thanks cool poem
Thanks WL. ; )
All he knows is this new gravitational pull,
and no desire to resist
Suddenly it made sense,
when he saw a girl and boy who kissed
He never saw it coming,
and puppy love is what they called it
But when he became an adult,
what then if he never out grew it
AP, thank you for a great poem, and of course I felt weak in the knees!
Glad you were fortunate to have had that experience and memory Fred. You're blessed. ; )
Beautifully written about a beautiful time in everyone's life if they are lucky enough.😊
Thank you sue. Sometimes I can't believe how lucky I am. Thanks for reading. ; )
First love in life, so far away yet close enough to feel.
Beautiful poem.
Thanks for reading m&m. ; )
Spectacular write! Yes I've been married to my true love for 15 yrs! Happy to hear you've been with your love a long time too! Congratulations on your long lasting love and this beautiful write!
Actually, I've not seen her since 14 years old. And we never had any kind of relationship. It was mostly a one sided love. But it has been worth it. Thanks for reading and your compliment. ; )
