Poetic Justice

2- Deception

         

You've grown oh so beautifully,

morphed into my worst temptation 

I've been peeling for so long and I finally see

what you tried so hard to keep hidden.

In that smooth exterior,

I assumed would be sucrose delight

but I was most disappointed

when I got its bitter content

it soured my life.

You've done so well.

I had been fooled

I now know not to pick another fruit.

To rid of the bitterness,

I need to remove the whole plant,

groping from it's root.

Now you've blossomed into a sweet one

news fruits have bared, the time has come

for you to be harvested, but not from me my dear,

there's another garden waiting for my care.
