Question:I only see the bitter
tasteless pit inside
enveloped by the sweet juice
carved away
and thrown to the side
chunks of peach
golden but worthless
tossed over the shoulder
to those who know better
they scavenge the remains
seeking the pit
the bitter
tasteless
worthless
heart
I hold to mine
with empty echoes of a beat
imploding within
hiding
exposed
and naked
bare
and wishing to find itself
safely nestled
between the sweetness
of what
was once
home

Very good. Dark, depressing in a good way.(If that's possible) Should evoke memories of loves lost, hearts broken etc.

It's rare I simply say I like it. I do. Thanks for sharing.

Sweet nice and sort of gloomy

That is very good.

wow.
i love it. it has a dark sense to it, but not in a cheesy, general way
