There they stood...side by side...my memory of all things 'teen..
The first girl I kissed and the last girl I kissed, before I joined the Navy...before I became a man.
I saw them before they saw me and I drank them in...One in Red the other in Black.
The years melted away as I saw their faces. The years I lost flooded back and so did the feelings.
It felt unnatural Why should I have these feelings after all theses years? ...but they were my first loves and they sat side by side and it scared me.
I wish I had more time to talk to them. I wish I could find out about their lives, their dreams, their children, their achievements...I wish I had never left and lost my teenage years to the military. Thinking back...15 was too young to join the Military, 15 was too young to give up my teen years....15 was too young to give up teen loves...15 was just too young!!
There they stood...side by side...and after one week...I still see them in my mind and in my dreams.
They are both beautiful women....They always were and they most definitely still are.

Welcome back.

Hi Ms Smack. Consider yourself linked :)
I will return the favour when I get home, mate! xxx
15 definitely was/is too young. Wow.
i can't even begin to imagine what that must have been like leaving at 15 for the navy, one set of experiences exchanged for another. this short piece says so much, sugar. xoxox
Hey there, Scorpy! Crikey, I really am loopy! I left a comment about this particular bloggy bit, in the comments for the last bloggy bit you wrote! Doh! Anyway, as I said below, I think it's nice you remember your exes so fondly, I can't think of mine in any other terms of them sucking lemons! (blows raspberry) Yes, 15 too young to enter Navy. Incidentally my mother tried booting me into the Navy at 16, but kicked and screamed so much, she gave up. Anyway, glad you're back!
