First Love

Young we were so deep in love


Carefree our thoughts about each other


Earth was ours and only ours


Just you and me together


 


We never thought neither one would leave


Our love was that deep


But waking from my deep sleep


I heard the words I cry when I repeat


 


Earth was not you place no more


Heaven had now become home


Shock was not the feeling I felt


Shame came over me


 


Shame for not telling you more


Shame for not sharing more


Shame for not caring more


Shame oh shame for ever more


 


Still this day I see you smile


Your voice in my ears


I feel your arms around me


Love can endure


 


When my time on earth ends


And I leave for heaven


Sad I shall not be


My first love again I shall see


 


John Thomas Banasiewicz Jr

Tommy this is one heavenly write...so beautiful the thought that love never dies but transforms in ways we simply can not fathom, until of course your poetry reminded us that love endures...Fletcher B

Oh Tommy,
this one is so sad and touching.
It's the irony of fate that, once it is too late, we regret things we have done or haven't done and said.
Even if she is in heaven now, she will know what you felt for her, how true and honest your love was. I am sure about this.
Keep well.
Excellent write.

A beautiful touching poem for a Sunday morning here in South Africa. I am sitting in my office with a winter sun streaming through the window, listening to the sound of bird song and reading poetry. What a lovely start to my day.
Thanks
