kiwi,

sun kissed skin,

like a gift plainly wrapped on a door mat.

you taste as sweet as a kiwi,

but the more i took you in,

the more you pierced through my tongue,

then you spread through my lips like a deadly disease.

it wasn't nice of me to do,

but i abandoned you

'cause i was beginning to be afraid that you'll hurt me entirely.
