"It's said that girls are like apples on trees..."
"...bright and shiny apples
shimmering in lush emerald tree tops
catching the suns emission just right,
delicious they are.
With the finest and most ripe ones held at the top of the tree.
It is also said that most boys are to indolent to want to reach for the good ones."
Nevertheless one day a young boy feeling down and alone,
with a heart shattered and a stomach empty, came along.
Then out of nowhere an apple fell from the top of the tree.
The boy spotted this unique and wondrous fruit,
and quickly ran to catch , the fastest he'd ever ran at that.
He almost tripped and fell just as this apple made it to the grasp of his shaken hands.
For a moment in time they were all that mattered
The most precious he'd ever seen. He knew then that this was the one for him..
But the story doesn't end there, no, it has only begun.
Since there are yet still many questions left unanswered.
You might ask why it was that this apple fell,
or if it was an involuntary fall at all.
In truth this one apple had been taken before,
But by the birds that fly above,
Pecking and harming the tenderness of this fruit,
leaving it with no return of compassion or love.
The bugs began to get to it,
ingesting to its core.
leaving a realm of veiled scars within,
a once wondrous fruit, presently, emotionally battered and sore.
And so the apple, exhausted and alone,
tired of waiting, desired to fall.
What lay ahead was not in plan,
but in the layout of life, blueprints between two in need of one another.
And so they met. Intriguing it is,
how much they needed one another, right from the beginning.
For the boy he had just let go of a putrid apple the day before.
He found that even though some apples appear ripe,
the fruit itself is Injected with a poison to make it look so.
And so he let the memories fade to less than whispers that cleansing morning,
little did he know then that he would never have to be poisoned again,
by reason of an occurrence that transpired later that day,
for the most remarkable event would be a love that two lifetimes could not explain.
So ardent, the influence of love and opportunity,
the prolonging adventure that lust could never measure.
It was love that they found in one another.
The need to experience and share affection for each other,
The drive to kiss and taste attraction,
all without motive or ruling of things.
