I was inspired by the picture below to write.



I believe in a love that is eternal.
Forever, infinite, always.

I think that when you love someone , that the love you feel is eternal. Even if you have found someone you love more or that person has done something to you that has emotionally scarred you, I believe the love still goes on. 
The love might exist as a friendship or in a memory or a photograph. Whatever form it is in, I think that there is no way of erasing it.

My first love exists in a song , my favourite song actually.
I had loved the song before I had met him and when I did meet him, we shared a mutual love of the song. The song is actually a break up song and it's funny how it foreshadowed the fate of our relationship. 
After you broke my heart, all I remember was wanting to cry every time I heard the song. I couldn't listen to the song. Although it was painful for me to even see the song on my ipod, I couldn't delete it. No matter how heart-broken I was, it just held too many memories and it was my only memento of what once was. 

I can listen to the song now without too much suffering and it is still a song which I love very much. Listening to the song makes me very nostalgic and brings back bitter-sweet memories. Sweet, because there are memories of us being happy together, bitter because the song is a break-up song and brings me back to the reality of what had actually happened.

I don't think much about him anymore, we're at different stages of my life and the idea of wanting to know how he is doesn't sound very appealing to me.
Our love exists now in a song and that seems like a lovely place for a first love to stay.

Maybe one day I'll want to see him and we can catch up over lunch, but for now, I'm happily cruising through life, listening to sentimental songs and skimming through old pictures.

I believe in a love that is eternal.
My first love exists in a song, which I hope lasts at least until the end of time.
