Devoured

by Lili C. Love


 

Devoured

I'm harvested for you
Juicy and sweet
Pick me out from the produce
Discriminating that you are
Squeeze me gently
I'm ripe for you
Bite me cautiously
Taste me
Savor me
Let me supply the energy
To run your body
While you exhaust yourself in me
Devoured
Throw away the pit
I live in your stomach
And pass through your bowels
I know you now
