I am the core of your apple
the heart of your fruit
the key to your soul
the strength of your root
Too often I am lost
among sugary fires
Sometimes I feel stuck
overcome by delicious liars
You used to hold me
so close to your skin
You loved my cold seeds
and admired my tart grin
If your core is forgotten
then where is your heart?
You shouldn’t depend on me
Please do your part
