Lemonade

I am tired of living my life in pieces

I am sick of watered down lemonade

I want to squeeze the juice directly into my mouth

Forget the sugarwaterice

And chew on the rind

I want the face pucker

I am tired of living a half life

I am sick of living in the gray area

I'm escaping in a citrus day dream

Black or white

All or nothing

I am tired of breaking myself off into smaller pieces

Easier for people to digest

I'm staying whole.

Let them choke.

Like a lemon seed sucked up through a straw
