First Love by Skye Laverna

First off, I gotta tell you

I’m sorry for all I didn’t do. 

I should’ve been more open

With you about who i am.

Your trust in me is broken,

I don’t blame you cause damn!

I’d dump me too.

Stop the hurt before it grew

Into a toxic mess where we need

To be together out of greed.

It’s not fair to do that,

We gotta grow as people

Before we combat 

Life together, and soar like eagles.

Promises made on late nights,

Now replaced by tears and frights.

Moments of bliss

Have become an endless abyss

Of tears and fears.

Did our feelings become insincere?

Were we really just caught up?

Or did we actually fuck up down the line?

The pain that comes from a breakup,

Can’t be described, only felt with time

And with it, the wound may close up.

I promised rings 

And forever.

Now we got broken grins

And no love whatsoever.

Can’t win back what was lost.

That road has become frost.

I must proceed with caution

For now there are precautions

To coming back to your life…
