If you were an apple I’d want to take a bite,

In my mind two sides collide,

One says to be pure, true and innocent,

To be the good girl I know I should be,

The other whispers evils in my ear,

Tells me to be bad to take a risk take chance,

Nothing will happen,

To settle this dispute I remove the temptation of you,

I put you back in the fridge and save you for later

Only to have this quarrel of my two minds once more,

But save it for a day that I can choose a side.
