FIRST LOVE

Author: Vincent Paul Gonzales
It was late Sunday night when we said good-bye
I knew right then that my heart would cry...
You felt so cold, and it hurt me so...
I loved you so much, that I let you go...

A love so true, it felt so sweet...
For a year of my life, you swept me off my feet...
I tried everyday, to remind you of my love...

For I knew you were precious and sent from up above...


I held you every moment... I held you tight...
Praying you would always love me every day, and every night
But time went on, as it tends to do...
And with times passing, I fell even deeper for you...

Your love grew tiresome... it tore me apart...
And you broke every promise, when you broke my heart...
I couldn’t stop crying, it hurt me so much...
For I longed every moment to feel your gentle touch...

I gaze into your eyes, to see only gray...
there was no need for words... I knew what you had to say...
I held on to you, in the depths of my heart...
Regardless of how it tore me apart...

My love still remains, through the betrayal you’ve done...
Messing with my best friend, and having your fun...
I stood by your side, though you didn’t want me...
and I loved you so endlessly...

I still love you, but time’s mended my heart...
But never shall your memory part...
And you will always have a special place within my heart...

You will always be the first, who touched me so deep...
And in my heart, will I always keep...
memories of you and me...
together for eternity...

You taught me how to love and, darling...
You will always be my first love.

ALL MY LIFE

It was not so long ago when I thought I'd never meet someone like you.
Wrong was I, thinking I'm in control
Believing I'd never fall.





All my life I thought no one would
melt a heart like mine, a heart so cold,
a heart hardened by the past,
protected by shields so vast.

Slowly I was falling
without even knowing.
Only to find out too late
I have no choice but to accept my fate.

I could dream, I suppose
forever, I could hope
there will never be any 'us', that's our destiny
so I wake up to reality.

I lied when I said
I didn't love you,
that my feelings for you
are through.

I lied
not because I wanted to
but because I love you
and I still do.

I wouldn't do a thing to hurt you
but I just have to let go.
I can't hold on much longer
'coz for us there's no forever.
