At sixteen

Infatuation, maybe
That's what you feel
Love at sixteen can't be real
You'll fall together
Fall apart
He'll leave you with
A broken heart
They preached it often
Preached it loud
A love like ours was not
Allowed
But the harder they fought
The more we shoved
Secrets fueling
Our desire for love
The stars gave their blessing
Our actions unseen
We had all we needed
In love at sixteen
Unbreakable we thought
One wrong move and it cracked
Tried to hold it together
But couldnt go back
Appologies spoken
The tears, they were shed
Unsure how to handle
Uncertainty ahead
Life played itself out
Your future and mine
To hold to the past
Would have wasted our time
So my only thought now
When you walk down the aisle
Is I had you first (love at sixteen)
And I smile
