Brutal Truth
Fresh as they come, you’re the pick of the litter.
Though too young for pathos and too soft for bitter,
how can I describe what fate has in store
later in life as the innocent lore
of your earlier life is exposed as just part
of what might affect your innocent heart?
Prompt words are soft, describe, pathos, later and young. Image by Alex Gomes on Unsplash.
