You are the Rose to my Vase,
The substance in my life.
I would look at you,
Dispel all my trouble and strife.
You are the Rose to my Vase,
So beautiful and pure.
I want you so bad,
I need you I'm sure.
You are the Rose to my Vase,
But you were taken from me.
My glass once filled with life,
Now void and lacking.
You are the Rose out of your Vase.
You Wilt and I stay Empty.

Now this is a truly sad poem. The loss of a loved one is never easy and sometimes we carry that pain forever, even if it is no longer so blinding or consuming.
A beautiful write that is strong in imagery and a good fluid flow.
Let the ink flow and your fingers dance

Thanks for enterring the new members contest. I think you have done a great job of expressing the feelings of losing a first love. The first heartbreak always makes a vivid impression on us and is very hard to overcome.
Thanks for sharing and best of luck in the contest. -

Thanks for the entry and welcome to the site!
Ohhhh, the ending of this poem is terribly sad yet the entire piece is so tender and sincere and beautiful. I do like the repetition of the “You are the Rose to my Vase” fraise; it works well in this poem. Nice work
Thank you very much for taking the time to write for` and enter our contest. Best wishes in all you do and welcome to Allpoetry

I don't see what this has to do with firsts. Though it has some good things in it.
Good luck in the contest and welcome to allpoetry.
God Bless

Ummmm
Though it doesn't actually say the word "first", it talks about my first love, the first great pain I feel, and the way thats firsts create lasts.... All of my friends got it... About how the first time a loved one was taken from me, was the last time I saw her.... it makes sense in my head...
