Pomegranate
Transparent red rubies hidden
Inside of the palest yellow flesh
When I thought there were no more
Sweet seeds
I tore a seemingly vacant chunk
To reveal layers
Upon layers
Of sustenance
My friend
Don't panic if you feel
Torn to pieces
For the sweetest fruit will emerge
From the tear in your heart.
Just keep searching
And you will discover the hidden
Seeds.
