My First True Love

We don't always see what's right in front of us,

It may just be an acquaintance, a friend, or the love of your life,

My first true love glided so gently into my life,

When I was fifteen going on sixteen,

I never dreamed my true love was in my pathway,

Without knowing my true love years past & I was beginning to wonder if there was ever going to be someone for me.

Years later I found my special acquaintance, friend, or the love of my life years later.

We found each other once again & becoming good friends,

I never dreamed that the middle school boy I used to think as so sweet & kind,

Would be the one to sweep me off my feet & love me no matter what.

This gentleman's name is music to my ears,

He is the most respectful, caring, and romantic person I know.

He is so sweet & loving,

He fills my day with hope, faith, laughter, happiness, & joy,

Kevin is his name & I hope he is always a part of my life.

I love you, Kevin!
