"Yet I hold this against you: You have forsaken your first love..." ...Revelation 2:4
You can have First Love and then
Leave Him somewhere...
You can tell that He's lost because
What people say to you
Starts to mean more
Than what First Love says--
And how people feel about you
Flattens you
When how they feel is bad--
Even though First Love thinks
You're beautiful--because you are His.
And you know that you've
Slipped away from First Love
When you always need something more--
When it's always
"I need First Love and--"
Instead of just
"As long as I have First Love
I will be ok. I can face anything."
When the longing is gone--
When the for-no-reason smiles
Have all disappeared--
When joy feels foreign--
And passion has shriveled--
When time alone with First Love
Just cannot be found
(Or feels like a business meeting)--
When it's like that, well,
You can tell--
It's time to find First Love again
And make Him
First
Like He used to be.
