a box of memories

You know honey

we never meant to part

just differences of the heart

you went to college,i went to war

you were always the girl next door

we dated all through high school

you were a cheerleader

and i was the star quarterback

you were my first kiss

my first time 

you are all the memories

that dwell in my mind

i still have your ring,

and all the other memories,

you left behind.and i hope 

that i'm a sweet memory in your mind...

That first kiss is one that is always remembered by most. I remember mine. This is sentimental and told with a big heart. That song is one I remember from youth too. Great job Wordman.

Very sweet, yet sad poem. Sometimes young love works, sometimes it doesn't. Memories can be so bittersweet. Nice job with this!
