Life is like a fruit bowl
Something sweet
Something sour
Something bitter
Something bland
Something exotic
Something not yet ready
Something overripe
Like our want to ignore
Like our urge to thrive
And if we don’t take care
And don’t lift hidden fruit
Underneath of all that colour
It is going to rot
Lift things from the shadows
Hold them into the light
Even if they are sour
Or really hard to bite
Or else they will just fester
Or else they make you sick
The hidden fruit in shadow
The wounds that never healed
Cool poem! 🙂
