Our first love is that young love we find as a teenager.

Twenty 20
This is the one we think well be with forever.
Theres this naive hope to this person.
I disagree with people who say kids dont know what love is.

Twenty 20
I think when you are young you know a love that is pure and genuine and hopeful.
You hang onto this and you put everything you possibly can into this person and this relationship.
This love is the one that hurts the most.
This love is the one that teaches you about pain and how strong you actually can be.
For the rest of your life, you always love this person.
The one that got away.
This person is the what if person.
The one you think of when you get drunk and youre alone with your thoughts.
The one you truly believed would be standing there holding your hand in a church as you got married.
You looked at this person and saw a future.
Someone youd be proud to standby.
The person that made sense.But for one reason or the other, it didnt work out between you.
When it came down to it, maybe your history was too much to have a future.
Maybe when push came to shove they didnt choose you when they needed to.
This is the person you would have risked it all for.
The one you didnt see coming.
This is the love that just happens out of nowhere.
Someone who comes into your life at a point when you need someone to love you.
They arent your soulmates.
But they make you happy for right now.
You spend time together thats enjoyable and you say I love you because you do.
Maybe you arent in love with them and wooing over everything they say.
But this is the love that comes into your life after heartbreak.
Someone who loves you the best they can show you, you deserve someone who appreciates you.
The one who changes your standards.
This is the person you think is almost too perfect.
The love you put on a pedestal.
The one who comes into your life appearing to be everything you could have ever wanted in a person.
You look at them and you love them even before you really get to know them.
Then as you learn more about who they are you find yourself falling harder.
You look at things in the world and you suddenly see them in all of it.
This person is the one you love a little more than they love you.
This is the person you wake up thinking about.
The one who consumes your thoughts at night.
You realize its a level of infatuation.
You jump ahead in your mind of everything you could be together.
They are the ones your family loves, the person who seems truly make you happy.
They treat you the way you deserve.
They are honest and hardworking.
They learn you and build your trust.
This is the person who you tell things to youve never said out loud.
They are your best friend.
The best person you know.
The one who forgives you for your shortcomings.
The love you want more than anything to be the right one.
And when it ends, its never bad.
You walk away grateful.
You walk away wondering can someone be better than them?
You have these new set of standards and expectations that change your dating game.
This person is the one that teaches you a good person doesnt mean the right person.
The one who chooses you and stays.
This person looks a lot like every past love youve had.
This person is the one it’s possible for you to love as deep as your first love.
Because you arent haunted by the past when you realize this is why everything played out as it did.
This is the person who works with you through the problems and doesnt walk away from that first fight.
Their love feels like the right love.
This person you also didnt see coming.
But they looked at you and knew right off the bat.
Not only do you think of a future with them, you start building it and working towards it.
You wake up and they are the first thing you see.
