Inside My Head

Inside my Head
inside my head deep within my heart, like an old portrait tucked away in a treasured locket, safely kept suspended in time… memories of my first love with his loving smile, which like sunshine could melt my heart; his warm, gentle touch his tender embrace the taste of his passionate kisses, the way he walked with that slight swagger so recognizable from afar; his husky voice that whispered shared secrets between us two, as he filled every day with romance; like soothing summer rain, he’s been dwelling inside my head
but wait a second - that sucker’s been long gone, married a new love and flippantly moved on; so it’s time for me to finally let go of all these pointless memories… inside my head

Can't blame you for turning your thoughts back to your first love, Pandita!! Pity he moved on ... or is it?:) OK, it's fictional, but you make it sound quite real! ~ All the best. // paul
