I don't have a title for this poem.... can't think of one, so if anyone who reads this has an idea, please help out, 'kay? Rite, this one I wrote while thinkin bout the first girl I ever loved.. there've only been three so far.. oh well..

I will always remember deep inside
No matter how I try to hide
My memory, a traitor that brings me pain
When I dream of my first love again
How foolish I was when I was young
When love for me had just begun
And naivete clouding untarnished eyes
Ignoring my heart's warning cries
A glimpse of her was pain and joy
And all so new to this simple boy
That joy could come in cheerful shine
While pain like a dance would step in time
A clumsy courtship of soft, shy words
That I myself never quite heard
And if 'she shares my feelings' was what I thought
Then I knew something she did not
For who am I to read the minds of girls
Who guard their thoughts like precious pearls
And self-deception thus I played
Till rejection rendered me dismayed
So young an age, so great a hurt
My flowers of fancy trodden in dirt
And this should have made me immune
To my future love misfortunes
Older now and wiser in years
But still I've shed not too few tears
For age and wisdom do not reflect
How love would mind and heart affect.

I hope I'm the only to be as unlucky in first loves.. or any love for that matter...

you are not first, nor the last, nor the only one... i can so relate to this ... and as a girl... i feel it from your point of you... cuz gender has nothing to do with the games someone can play.... sorry about the pain.. but we're both strong enough to live with it... im sure
