Fragile As An Apple


Can I tell why an apple is as fragile as a promise? Like an apple, a promise has its core and skin. A fragile promise are the ones you cannot miss. You can try ignoring it but breaking a promise, it was once a sin. It may be the toughest one to keep. Like an apple's skin; it's the toughest part to eat. But if a promise is kept, you'll get a little deep. Like the inside of an apple, a kept promise will be sweet. Remember, as apples grow on trees, a fragile promise is in reach. It takes time, because those promises are meant to be. There's the fragile; an apple. The non fragile; a peach. Understand, the fragile are the hardest on the outside, you'll see. The fragile are vulnerable and need to be protected. If a promise is kept, the sweets won't pretend. But if a fragile promise is broken, it's another apple infested. Of course, the core of an apple will always come along, because at one point everything has to end.
