The First Time

by Lan Trinh

When I saw you, my heart fluttered with butterflies
When I was near you, my life was full of sunshine
When our hands met, my whole body shivered like on a windy day
When we held each other close, I felt as if my heart would explode with emotions
When we kissed, our lips met and I tasted pure heaven
When I laid my head down upon your chest I could hear your heart pounding

When we made love, all I could picture was you and I together always
When you looked at me, my eyes twinkled like shooting stars
When I looked at you, your gleaming eyes burned like flames upon a candle
When you left, I searched the world for you, near and far
I would've gone to the deepest ocean to drown in all my love
I would've climbed the highest mountain to seek for all of yours

When I could not find you, my soul was as empty as a water dried well
All my sorrows gathered deep within me until I was ready to explode in tears
This love is special because it sent a thousand daggers through my heart
Blood flowed down from my eyes and created a dark red puddle beneath my feet

When I was no longer able to feel pain and sorrow, I felt anger
So much that it tore me from others surrounding me trying to comfort
thinking of you for what seemed like an eternity put hatred in my heart
I gave you my love, my soul, my all, but all I got was a meaningless letter
When I read how you effortlessly tried to express how you were sorry
The thousands of daggers dripped with but more blood and my body grew stiff

How could you hurt me so, sending my heart shattering towards the ground
For many days, months, and years that has passed by, I still could never forget
The sweet smell of red and white rose pedals which lays dormant across my bed
Reminds me of how my childish ways lend me to swirls of confusion in my mind
Never again would I submit myself to such pain that causes death upon my soul

Amber

This was an awesome poem i give it two thumbs up! It really does express the pain a teen feels when they lose their virginity and a guy leaves them, which happens alot now adays! i dont think i could have been written any better!
Chels

I Just had my heart broken not to long ago. I lost my virginity to a LOSER, and thats all he wanted he told me how much he really liked me bla bla bla, and its been hard trying to get over it, and move on, so I need to do some research at work and see what could cheer me up and just the fact that u are brave enough to say ur feelings and let everyone read them is incredible. The Guy who took my Virginity was in jail half of the time and now that he's out he's trying to get back with me and I dont know how to egnore him, its hard. But Ur poem really helped me alot, feels like u are here with me trying to get through this. Thanks
Andy

What a touching poem. I feel like you were speaking to me. maybe you were?
Dustin

I have trouble seeing if the poetry comes from the heart of a person sometimes, but in this poem I think it diffinatly did. I am a guy and have not experienced your love nor your pain. As a matter of fact I haven't even had a first date yet. I'm not a bad guy I guess I just haven't tried hard enough yet.
mandie

wow this is very deep. when i read this this all i could say was wow. if that happened to me i would just die . great poem loved it . you should have a poetry career.
ryan

you're not the only one that has had this happen to them but there is never less nothing we can do. the guy who tore my heart apart took my virginity and kept playing the game. i wish i had gotten out sooner but i kept believing. this poem is the first one i've read to express that pain of what is taken from you that can never be returned just for the fun of a game.
lady

this poem is soo amazing. i love it because it made me remember what happened to me and i realize that i wasnt the only person that was done this way. after two years i still remember it, but i am thankful because it helped me and i've learned a lot from that one experience. guard your hearts and yourselves ladies!
Draik

You know this really sounds like my sister. This guy took advantage of her when she was vulnerable. Now she has a kid and the father is in jail.
alisha

i was suprised at all the girls comments that said "the same thing happened to me". So yep it happened to me too and the pain you feel is imaginable. It hurts to know oyu were used but even though u never forget it u will get over it and live on and find someone who really loves you. But u learn from ur mistakes, and hopefully any other girls can learn from ours. It was a grest poem. Keep ur head up
Erin

OMG! i loved this
Bianc

i really like this poem
ashley

this poem is a great way of expressing how much a person can care for a nother and get hurt so bad. this was a great poem for me because the same thing happend to me.
lisa

Luc

That was a great poem! Don't put your life on hold because the guy you are writting about is not worth it. When you finally meet the right person.it will all make sens :) I hope I get to read more of your poems, that was truly touching.:)
beki

this poem is amazing, i really like how you portrayed your feelings. the passion and love you felt is skillfully brought over. it sounds like he did not deserve you any way.
Cassie

This poem is great! I know how she is feeling! It happened to me too! I thought that we were in love and that we would be together forever! Well I guess that i thought wrong! I gave him something that i can never get back and after like a month or two afterwards he left me!
Ruthie

I love this poem and something sort of similar like this happen to me and it hurt so bad. I use to be in a relationship with him and after it was over that's all he wanted but I will forgive but never ever forget.
Lashorea

I really love this poem. I csn really relate to it. The only difference is the guy stayed with me for 8 1/2 months after we had sex but thats not a good thing because thats the only reason he stayed with me. Not only that but he wsa sleeping with my cousin too! So all i have to say is keep your head up and someday the right guy will come. BE PATIENT and ask God to help yuor heart to heal and give you some peace. He'll send the right man for you when its time.
ann

Sarah

I found that to be a great poem. You sound like a deep caring person and i'm certain you'll find the right person. BTW. The guy sounds like a prick to make you feel that way.

lizeth

Tiffany

I really felt for this poem because I've been put in that same position. I never thought that my feelings would be able to be expressed as well as they were in this poem. Being put through this has made me a totally different girl. Since this happened I completely regret ever losing my virginity. I wish I would have saved myself for someone that was a real for sure thing, that would be there for me always.
Melissa

unbelieveable. My heart grew into this poem. Your a beatiful person.
Jessica
