Until

A Poem by indiscreetis

Being in love has ignited my anxiety on a new level. Thrown imaginary realities I had yet to fathom. But I am growing.

I didn't know Sadness until I loved you.
Never saw Pain until I fell for you.
I hadn't known Badness until I met you.
Couldn't feel the Stain until I felt you.

Your eyes are on mine,
As are your lips.
I caress your every crevice
While you trace freckles on my hips.

The Sadness filling my heart when I think
About losing yours is a somber work of art.
Wrenching pain dangling in the depths of
My brain imagining not waking up to your face.
Each time you've helped me stand rids the
Badness from this land I call my body,
Allowing me to shake her hand.
The Stain you've left from fingers lain at my
Lips I will cherish for myself to retain.
