Dear first love
I still think about you
I hold onto our last conversations like a child holds onto their blanket
It’s safe
When people ask about you, I smile
I breathe your name like a sigh of relief
And remember how it felt when we held hands
It was like infinity was laced between our fingetips
Dear first love,
I’ll tell them about you
Recount every memory
Every laugh
I’ll tell them how time tried to break us
But instead we let it heal us
And when they ask me how I loved you
I’ll tell them
I loved you the way God loves sinners
Unconditionally
I loved you like the first rain after a drought
You were everything I prayed for
I loved you like the rainbow after the flood
I promised
I love you in black and blue ink permanently
I did
I do
I love you
