First Love

 Let me be your first love.

Let me be the lover
who knows you for you,
With who you were true.

Let me be the love
That was pure.
That knew only bounds
of imagination.

Let me be that dream,
That keept you up every night,
That keept you going every day,
That promised the truth in life.

Let it be known, though,
You may choose to out grow my love.
That, You may choose to run after what else glitters.
Illusions that you know will break.
Mirages that aren't there.
Falls without the trust,
Face first into the dust.

Let me be the vision then,
Of what love meant to you
Back when it all began,
When i was just another illusion,
Without the chase.
When there was no other.
When it wasn't about fancy clothes or pretty faces.

Take strength, from my love for you then,
When you feel there's nothing to fight for.
If you do seek me then,
Don't run further in vain.
Just stop and breathe,
You'll feel me in the pain...
and It'll never be the same again.
