first loves;

one of the many greatest forms of torment to exist,
the method of building up a person for another,
two words that come with the loneliest meaning,
an adjective meant for nostalgia and memories,
an old ageless tale of hurt and ache and youth,

often used as a prelude to a happy ever after,
a timestamp for reminiscing the good days

nothing but a tangent line
