I'm Worth It The sweet taste of melon lies where the seeds lurk, to experience the sweetness requires a bit of work. Gathering luscious berries, you'll likely be torn, the prize always nestles among briars and thorns. Not all of life's pleasures are easily won, to garner rain's benefit, we weather the storm. To gain a healthy body or acquire a new skill calls for expended effort, there's no magic pill. Please pay close attention to this next part, I expect you to work at winning my heart. Woo and win me with chocolates, flowers and such, courting without goodies doesn't interest me much.
