Love is like a cashew fruit,
Its tempting exterior,
Its promised seed within; but
All surrounded by poison.

My insides are constricting,
My heart is coming undone;
What I once knew to be true,
Is now completely opposite.

What is a college degree worth?
A bachelors is to high school
As a masters is to college;
One's no longer the same in worth.

Real men can't bear to cry,
For to show their weakness
Would only get them hurt more,
So hiding hurts is best.

Anger building inside,
I'm about to explode!
All this hate towards her,
When all I want is done.

A battle rages inside me,
One is pure and white,
The other is cruel and dark,
Battling who wins.

She walks into the room,
I can tell she is near;
No matter what I do,
I can still feel her stare.

If He is the Rose of Sharon,
And we are a part of the Vine,
Then I would be a thorn,
Pierced in His brow and side.

Rachael was sweet, but payed me no mind;
Zoe was nice, till I saw betrayal gallore;
Hannah is beyond my worthiness;
Yet Jessica proves my friend forever.

That dark spot of nothing,
Ever drawing nearer;
None can see through it,
Yet none can escape it.
