A smiling orange and a bruised one

A bowl of Fruit sits A smiling orange and a bruised one Both yearn to be picked Both yearn to be loved A hand reaches for the fruits The smiling orange wins Nails puncture the skin of the fruit Its sour juice drips like rain its smile shines The bruised orange now sits alone Next time it will be picked, right?
