Your First Love
I'd like to say Thomas whatshisface from second grade, but seriously? I didn't even have all my adult teeth yet.
Love is so fickle. It's easy to think you're in love when you don't really know what it is. Every teenager has had that moment where you cry and cry because the love of your life broke your heart only to find out it wasn't even close to love.
I was somewhat of an "I love you" tramp when I was younger. It was more of a question than a statement though. I'd say it to see if I'd hear it in return, but that wasn't love. I had no idea what love even was. I do now though.
As cheesy as it is, my first love is the woman I'm going to marry. She taught me that truly loving someone else can only come after truly loving myself. And now that I do, I can honestly say that I truly love her.
So Shannon Ruth Lord, you are my first (and only) love.
