first lesson

at one point in time

I called you my first love

time passed and I discovered you were nothing

but a mere attachment

no, not even as much

for some reason I clung to you

even as you

sucked out my soul

a leech

leaving my soil dry

didn't care to water my mind

till one day there was barely anything left

I finally picked up my head and left

years later you still found ways to reach out

crying you'll never move on

mourning a love that was never real

my first lesson
