First love

You.
I love you always.
You can't erase me
Not after the way I loved you

You don't get to forget me
I don't get why we think drinking numbs the pain
Because no matter the amount
You're still consuming my brain
It took me
Sitting on a floor
In a strange apartment
With a man I didn't know
Thinking about just how much I didn't want to be there
That finally helped me understand
Why humans so desperately chased love

Because with all the fear and unknown
Even in the risk of heartbreak
I just wanted to be held by a man
Who wanted to also hold me in the morning
It hits me in the weirdest ways

Like when I see a picture
Of you wearing a t-shirt I don't recognize

Or being asked questions about you
That I don't know the answer to

And while I've moved on
It never gets easier realizing that
*you moved on too.
To be honest
I can't really tell anymore
The difference between the princes and the dragons
We're just a bunch of kids with commitment issues
Because we were raised to believe
That we have so much extra life to live
So even when we've found the greatest thing
We convince ourselves there's gotta be more
So we get drunk
And avoid any type of feelings
Because being numb
Is better than believing
That maybe we were the lucky ones
The rare few
Who got it right on the first try
