I Am Not So Serious but Still Meaningful


I am the last kernel in the popcorn that you loathe for getting stuck in your teeth

Or you must spit out awkwardly as I am too hard to crack

But if you had waited. 

Let the possibility of a fire ignite my release of what I have bottled up inside

Maybe things would be different.
