I am excited to see you tomorrow.
I am terrified of the path I need to take to see you.
I am elated that you come tomorrow.
I am rooted in spot, frozen
At how you will come to be.
Fear and love
Bloom in me together
Intertwined like rose petals
One after the other
Both red
Too red, too similar
To tell them apart
Like you and me right now
Us. Together. Now.
And tomorrow. We become two people
You become a human separate from me.
I am terrified of the way that will come to me.
I am imbibed with joy that you will be.
Tomorrow.
