Used to be I was nice
a bonbon
in brevity tasted, easily swallowed
or bitten piece by piece
then my core devoured
best to savor my soul
but life's submersions transform
drenching and dissolving sweetness
drips
gradually melting
revealing truth
unsweetened
best to savor my soul
but life's submersions transform
drenching and dissolving sweetness
drips
gradually melting
revealing truth
unsweetened
natural
raw
slightly bitter
unpalatable
raw
slightly bitter
unpalatable
indigestible
inedible
real
Used to be I was nice
