My First Signs of Love

Capricorn heart, December skies

Earth-born dragon, dreaming wide

Did the stars write all of this?

Before I even knew what love is?

A boy with the letter D

We clashed like fire and sea

But when he smiled, I’d lose my breath

In the glow of something I hadn’t named yet

Like fate had drawn a quiet map

Each feeling marked, no looking back

The signs, they whispered soft and slow

I followed where I didn’t know

These were my first signs of love

Unspoken, wild, from stars above

Just letters, faces, passing days

But each one lit a different flame

From D to N, to W’s light

Each moment carved into the night

Before I found someone who’d stay

These were the hearts along the way

N, a Scorpio boy, calm and still

I felt too much, I couldn’t feel

The way he looked, I turned away

My silence made him walk someday

Then W boy came in the midday sun

With paper folded, message run

He stood before me, light behind

And I thought love was finally mine

I sent a CD through the breeze

"Lovely Duets", a hope, a plea

No answer came, but I held on

To a love that faded into song

These were my first signs of love

The soft beginnings I dreamed of

From every almost, every ache

Each silent chance I didn’t take

From D to N, to W’s name

All shadows dancing in the flame

Before I knew what love could mean

I chased the stars inside a dream

Then A appeared, my Virgo grace

A wooden Rat, a calm embrace

He saw me clearly, gave me space

And love, for once, had found its place

You held my heart and gave it back

With every hug I never lacked

You loved me when I couldn’t see

That love was choosing me

You were the one who stayed

Not forever, but still, you gave

A love that looked me in the eye

And didn’t hide or pass me by

Thank you, A, you were the proof

That love exists and love is truth

These were my first signs of love

The stars I wrote my wishes of

From D to N, to W’s face

To A who filled my empty space

No fairy tale, just truth and tears

That built my soul across the years

Before the one who’d hold my hand

I learned what love could understand

Then came another A

A Taurus boy who drew me near

He played the part but walked away

His heart was never meant to stay

A song called"From Heart" still plays

But now I smile, it was just a phase

A sweet mirage, a playful sting

Not every spark becomes a flame

These were my first signs of love

Unwritten dreams I’m thinking of

Each heartbeat left a silver trace

Each name, a time I can’t replace

From D to N, to W’s light

To both the A’s who came in sight

They shaped my heart before it grew

To love that’s real and deeper too

I never knew what love was made of

Until I walked through signs of love
