At First by Marci Parker
At first, remember how you promised?
It would be soft and tender,
A loving feeling to remember.
But, instead . . .
You made me feel like a whore,
My body laid out in front of your eyes to adore.
And I wondered how this could be,
We were finally together, you and me.
I was only a piece of flesh,
No loving thing,
And that was the night this angel was stripped of her wings.
You hurt me, caused pain
And what was I to gain?
This tiny life that is inside,
When I found out I could have died.
Something that once had the chance to be so sweet,
Turned out to be nothing to you but a piece of meat.
The pain I felt,
My heart you made melt.
This pain can never be recovered,
Because I will always have a reminder of my first lover.
Something he will not see for a while.
He does not know that we made a child.
It would be soft and tender,
A loving feeling to remember.
But, instead . . .
You made me feel like a whore,
My body laid out in front of your eyes to adore.
And I wondered how this could be,
We were finally together, you and me.
I was only a piece of flesh,
No loving thing,
And that was the night this angel was stripped of her wings.
You hurt me, caused pain
And what was I to gain?
This tiny life that is inside,
When I found out I could have died.
Something that once had the chance to be so sweet,
Turned out to be nothing to you but a piece of meat.
The pain I felt,
My heart you made melt.
This pain can never be recovered,
Because I will always have a reminder of my first lover.
Something he will not see for a while.
He does not know that we made a child.

The first promises of how love will be can often be misleading, and sometimes you are left with bitter reminders of your first love - forever. Forever faced with countless painful decisions.

shocking and chillingly gripping. Love to you and the baby Angel - d |

I love this poem. I am in exactly the same situation, but at times I still feel so alone. My husband left me when I got pregnant and he has no idea that I have the most beautiful baby girl ever. How someone can walk away from an innocent child is beyond me. I wish you the best of luck! Regardless of the loser father, your child has you and that will be enough. - Valerie |

This poem lies very close to my heart. recently I fell in love and was carrying my lovers child. I went out with him one night and we discussed our bright future together. three days later he disappeared, I have not seen him since. It does get easier although I couldnt face keeping our baby. my world still has many cracks even now xxxx - Lydia |

this poem was so sad it made me cry - jennifer |

I loved this poem because it talks about a woman that has been hurt which I'm sure we all have but in this poem it sounds like we're cathing a climpse of her soul thats so hurt. The soul is very hard to look into but this poem takes us closer to the window of the soul so we can look in and not cause so much pain as the one in this poem. jania - Jania |
