I remember the first time we met； you were as cute as you could be and then we started to play fight and then you sat on me.
You started to throw popcorn while I was going down the stairs and I came back to beat you up while you laid there.
I saw you again on Valentine’s Day when I was a little shy， and didn’t know what to say.
I remember the first time I asked you to come to my house with your brother； at first you didn’t want to because of my mother， father， and brother.
When you came upstairs I was playing wit vane， I was hoping you were thinking—can I play with her？
While you were sitting on my couch changing channels on my TV， I was staring at you hoping you wouldn’t catch me.
Then we became all cool and started to play fight， you bit me and I bit you， and then we held each other a little tight.
Then I remember our first kiss； you were sitting on the chair I was in front of you and stood there.
But the moment had to last and you had to go and in my mind I was saying， “No， he can’t go！”
Then on March the 3rd you asked me to be your girl and I replied yes and we became a couple； I was hoping there would be no trouble.
I always remember on a Sunday night you surprised me and said， “I LOVE YOU.” I asked you over and over and said don’t play. I replied to you and said， “I love you too always.”
Then 2 months past， you said you wanted to leave so I said “don’t worry， just stay calm.” So later on， we were going our way， but sometimes we had our bad days.
It was about our 4th month we had planned a day so we went out， but we had a big argument and didn’t know what to say.
Then the date finally came. You called me a bitch， so I got up and walked away. I walked away and stood behind a wall then I just thought “God please don’t let this relationship fall.”
As a tear dropped from my eye， you walked by and said， “Baby I’m sorry， please don’t cry.”
So finally we went home and you kissed me and I told you to go.
You made new friends and went out and do you know I sat there pissed， mad， and a kind of blue.
So then I finally told you， you don’t need me and I don’t need you.
So you said let’s just take a break 1 month， but 2 months then I felt like it went away.
Then after a while you called me that you miss me， you love me and you want me.
We talked for a while， I was being cold then you asked me again and I explained myself and then said no.
So after that I wrote about a guy who stole my heart away as we said goodbye， and he went his way and I went mine and here I am today.
记得我们初次相识时，你好可爱。我们一起玩打仗，之后你骑到了我身上。
我准备下楼时，你就扔爆米花，你躺在地上时，我折回来痛打了你一顿。
再次遇见你是在情人节那天，我有一点儿害羞，不知道说什么好。
还记得我第一次邀请你和你弟弟来我家玩，开始你不想来，怕看到我的父母和兄弟。
你上楼时，我正在玩风信旗。那时我就希望你能这么想——我可以和她玩风信旗吗？
你坐在沙发上调电视频道时，我凝望着你，并希望你没有发现。
接着，我们静了下来，开始玩打仗。在打闹中你咬了我，我也咬了你，然后我们抱住了对方。
还记得初吻时，你在椅子上坐着，我在你面前站着。
然而，时间过得真快，你得走了，我在心里说：“不，不要走！”
后来，在3月3日那天，你请求我做你的女朋友，我答应了，于是我们成了情侣。我希望我们的爱情之路顺利平坦。
我总记得那个星期天的晚上，你着实让我吃了一惊。你对我说：“我爱你。”我问了你很多次，并要你别和我开玩笑了。最后，我还是回应了你，“我也永远爱你。”
两个月后，你说你想离开我了。我对你说不要这样，冷静一下吧。这以后，我们又在一起了，但有时会发生争执。
大约在相识四个月后，我们计划出游一天，也就在那天，我们大吵了一架，之后就无话可说了。
终于，分手的那天到了。你骂我是泼妇，我气急败坏，起身离开。我站在墙后，祈祷着：“上帝啊，别让这段感情就此结束。”
我的眼泪簌簌滑落，你走过来对我说：“亲爱的，对不起，别哭了！”
我们一起回到家，你吻了我，我请你离开。
你交了新的朋友，与她们一同游玩。你不知道我是多么气愤，还有点儿忧伤。
于是，我终于告诉你，我们不再彼此需要了。
你却说让双方冷静一下，先分开一个月。可对我来说，这一个月就如两个月一样漫长。
后来，你给我打电话，说你很想我、爱我，也很需要我。
我们聊了一会儿，我的态度始终很冷淡。你又问我是否愿意回到你身边，我说一切已经无法挽回了。
之后，我写到，我和我深爱的男孩分手了，他走他的阳关道，我过我的独木桥。现在，我仍旧过得很好。
心灵小语
在生命中的某一天，你会遇上一个人，他能让你哭，让你笑，让你品尝爱的甜蜜与苦涩。

逝去的爱
First Love
约翰？沃尔特斯 / John Walters
I remember the way the light touched her hair. She turned her head， and our eyes met， a momentary awareness in that raucous 5th-grade classroom. I felt as though I’d been struck a blow under the heart. Thus began my first love affair.
Her name was Rachel， and I mooned my way through grade and high school， stricken at the mere sight of her， tongue-tied in her presence. Does anyone， anymore， linger in the shadows of evening， drawn by the pale light of a window—her window—like some hapless summer insect？
I would catch sight of her， walking down an aisle of trees to or from school， and I’d become paralyzed. She always seemed so poised， so self-possessed. At home， I’d relive each encounter， writhing at the thought of my inadequacies. Even so， as we entered our teens， I sensed her affectionate tolerance for me.
“Going steady” implied a maturity we still lacked. Her Orthodox Jewish upbringing and my own Catholic scruples imposed a celibate grace that made even kissing a distant prospect， however fervently desired. I managed to hold her once at a dance—chaperoned， of course. Our embrace made her giggle， a sound so trusting that I hated myself for what I’d been thinking.
