This Apple
Honestly, if i eat this apple,
My love will appear right here,
In front of me;
Like syrup of maple,
Our kisses can span the rigors of time,
Like clouds under azure sky
Like ripples over ocean skin
Live Anthony and Cleopatra
Honestly! Honestly!

To eat the apple or not to eat- that is the question.

Very nicely done, Gillena. Deception comes in honest disguises!

ReplyDeleteWe know what may happen... honesty may hide some lies.
ReplyDeleteSometimes, we have to believe.
