Lil Bit edit TITLE CHANGE “Side Piece”

[Xlateralus]

I made some edits..

Side Piece

You're the kind of candy that tricks
with a two toned taste - a little bitter

The kind of candy that sits
bottom of the dish - just sweet enough

The kind of candy that sticks
hard shell gone soft - stuck in mouth

Like a lemon drop.

Little Bit

Dear it's quite clear you're like a lemon drop

You're the kind of candy that sticks
hard shell gone soft - stuck in mouth

You're the kind of candy that tricks
with a two toned taste - a little bitter 

You're the kind of candy that sits -
bottom of the dish - just sweet enough

Like a lemon drop

I wrote this one a little while ago for nation poetry month and decide I liked enough to offer it up for thoughts. Thanks.
