Stain

by Quinlan L Gibson

Let me guess
this was just one of those things
left unsaid.
Like the unmade bed,
and the one you corrupted us for.
And now it has come
by your stain all undone
so I’ll stand here and show you the door.

Author's Note: a nightmare the other night inspired this. Nuff said.

Succinct and direct, and yet full of emotion. I like this one Prima.
