Chapter 1: cherry ice and lemonade, my sweet bitterness

Notes:

(7/26/2024)

Chapter Text

some people call me sweet,
a cherry, ripe and cleaned neat 

but under the same breath,
one will say i will seethe
because of something so simple

fill up your cup with lemonade,

maybe someone will want it 

but everyone wants cherry,
a slushie with sugar and preservatives
to cover up the bitterness inside,

flavors of which consume me like a plague, 

maybe one day, you’d get to know me
mix them up together, would you like the taste?

I don’t think you’d be able to handle
the bittersweetness of cherry ice and lemonade
