girls are like
apples on trees. the best
ones are at the top of the tree.
the boys don't want to reach for
the good ones because they are
afraid of falling and getting hurt.
instead, they just get the rotten
apples from the ground that aren't
as good, but easy. so the apples
at the top think something is wrong
with them, when in reality, they're
amazing.
they just have to wait for the right boy
to come along, the one who's brave
enough to climb all
the way to the
top of the
tree.
