Where Have All The Flower's Gone...

by Dreamofolwin   Jan 6, 2010


Where have all the flowers gone, my heart asks with a sigh
Those happy, carefree days, when, together you and I...
Walked together hand in hand, our hearts happy and free
When sunshine filled our souls, being together you and me.

You came and stole my heart with that cheeky, cocky smile
It danced each time to see you, and just to sit and talk awhile.
I didn't know it then, at that time so young at heart...
That a love was slowly blossoming, as a friendship we did start.

You always made me laugh, and laugh for hours on end
The friendship that we had, I never wanted to end...
But others thought you not good enough, they really couldn't see
That really you where the one, that would make me happy.

Yes, my heart it still remembers, all the little things we have done
Like watching funny movies, or just lazing in the sun...
I never will forget you, my first love although I try,
But I will forever remember you, until the day I die.

    First love is an infatuation we've never experienced before, that quite often ends in a nightmare ... but if we're one of the lucky ones, a beautiful foundation to build upon

    Nicely penned, the feelings were conveyed quite well. +1 on the grammatical error, another option to fix it would be all the little things we have done :)
