First Times
The teen years are always
the first times of life
which lead hither
to all other times.
Girls with whom
we will makeout,
boys with whom
we will brag about.
Friends to touch
and be touched by.
Women to have for our own
at the twitch of an eye,
or the smirk of a smile,
or the flip of some hair.
Lady friends
for our love and affection,
to caresse and hold close,
to share our twin thoughts.
They're all ours
for the taking.
Maybe so, maybe not.
Tis true though,
there is another
path through life
to follow.
