Love Poem: The Apple

The Apple

An apple could represent love,
And make a harsh statement on your mind

For it’s poisonous on the left side, 
And golden on the right

It’s a chance we take,
With a blindfold around your eyes

It seems that the apple is pure,
But deadly on the other side

I was scared for so long,
That I would have the vile side

And end up plaguing my heart
And leaving my emotions to die

The apple tree stays beautiful
Filled with fruit and standing tall

But not all of the apples were perfect,
Because one of the apples would fall

Now with your blindfold,
Wrapped around your eyes too tight

They told you to hold your breath
Breathe in, and take a bite.
