Dear First Love.
The first time I saw you
You spoke to my ribs
Gave me butterflies that still haven't died out today.
The first time I spoke to you
the words you whispered to me went into my brain, through my veins, & wrapped themselves tightly around my heart. I can't pull them off
The first time I kissed you
My skeletons danced on walls & only saw your shadow
I fell in love with you the way you fall asleep.
Slowly at first, then all at once.
You're were the only one with the only love that's strong enough to claim me.
You entered the darkest, dustiest parts of my heart & cleansed my soul
Because of you
I kept living
I found someone more beautiful than death

Dear First Love.
The first time I saw you
You spoke to my ribs
Gave me butterflies that still haven't died out today.
The first time I spoke to you
the words you whispered to me went into my brain, through my veins, & wrapped themselves tightly around my heart. I can't pull them off
The first time I kissed you
My skeletons danced on walls & only saw your shadow
I fell in love with you the way you fall asleep.
Slowly at first, then all at once.
You're were the only one with the only love that's strong enough to claim me.
You entered the darkest, dustiest parts of my heart & cleansed my soul
Because of you
I kept living
I found someone more beautiful than death
