Forever
First
I hated you
Oh how much I did
Popping zits made you messy
Disgusting complexion made you unattractive
I didn't want you
Next
I saw no worth
Having you felt like a curse
I wished to be anywhere but with you
Why was I stuck with you and not another?
I didn't see your worth
Then
I got an epiphany
You've been always there
Housing me through thick and thin
You cover my core, you protect my inner soul
You were mine
Now
I love you
There's nothing more to say
You are my body, made just for me
I have come to realize that you and I are stuck
For better or worse
This is my entry for the fifth edition of the Stach poetry contest.
