Something Old Meets Something New

Someone quick! Catch me before I fall for him.

His name plays an integral part in my life;

And his role can never be recast.

It’s a new, fun feeling, turned into obsession.

It’s an unconditional love that’s as strong and true as that of a married couple.

He and I are foreign to each other;

This being one sided, completely having the onus on me.

A love so whole,

Tenderness found between the bruises on our skin.

Untamed passion expressed;

Expressed because I love him.

-R.W.
