Puppy Love

I was rummaging through my old things today and i saw this poem i wrote 10 years ago... I couldn't believe that i still had it among my stuff... that i was able to write something like that at the age of 16... In my own script handwriting, the poem was written on November 25, 1995, signed as "anne, 11251995"... Here it is in the exact same format as to how i wrote it...

I met him once
in a very unexpected place
I gave him a glance
he looked at my face.

We became friends
Oh how good it felt
Yes, i found out
My heart did melt.

Six months passed
I leaned on his chest
That very special moment
when i said "Yes".

We shared our laughters, our joys & tears
I looked into his eyes
then i saw fear.

Oh yes, we've had our sad moments
those moments he looked me in the eye
only for me to say... Goodbye!

Many times this happened, three or four
was it meant to be?
or would there be more!

I love him, yes I love him so
but why doesn't it work out
It's hard to let go!

Two years passed by
yes he's still the one
is it real?
or did i just lie!

I have feelings,
no, i can't deny
I still love him
but why?

Is it destiny?
or was he sent from up above?
no... maybe because...
he's my first love!

How funny when you think of how complicated you thought things were back then... being so young and full of life... lots of dreams and aspirations... at the time i thought it was real love... but now looking back... as i finally throw this piece of paper... with a silly grin on my face... it was just puppy love... =)
