Forgotten My First Love

You have, in fact

Been left behind

Kicked back

Throughout time

Closer to the rear

Then you’ve ever been

Stumbling over

What lies within

Dragged by the rope

More precious than thee

What have you

done to deserve me?

You hung on a tree

You were laid in rock

Only to be left behind

Like a tattered sock!

You took my shame

You broke my chains

You set me free

Now left in the rain.

Been here before

Push and shove

I’ve done it again;

Forgotten my first love.
