Never like the first time we met
Eyes like Diamonds in a field of snow
Never like the first words she said
Like pathway created by water, she flows
Never like the first walk we had
Moments to remember, the wind behind our back
A cold day in September
Never like the first kiss, lips velvety Dark like penumbra
Never like the first time distance came in between
With my mind she played like the strings of a Violin
Never like the first letter she wrote
Each word a rhythm, I felt every note
With distance came argument
Never like the first time, Apology made love permanent
Never like the first time we painted ourselves with the colours of the night
Your arms, your embrace
I’m lost in your sight
Never like the first time, she pulled me close and whispered
It February 14th
Remember it’s our First Time.
