Exercise the dream.
Eat the cupcake filled with cream.
But, too much of the goodies will make you unhealthy and fat.
So savor the moment, remeber that.
An apple is healthy and naturally sweet.
Sugarcoated, what a great treat!

By the way, u know whats worse than to find a worm in your apple? Finding half a worm haha
I do like it quite a bit better with line breaks - don't care much for the centering myself, though I will say it does look a bit like an apple.

Did you notice the meter at all?  It switches from predominantly iambic to predominantly anapestic.
Those are heavy words at the end, have to look em up, what is "meter" ?
Well, you wrote it in rhyming couplets (series of 2 lines that each rhyme with each other)
When you write in rhyme, it works best with a consistent meter.  Meter is the regular rhythm of the beats in speech.  You naturally fell into meter which means you may have a talent for writing poetry!  You used 2 different meters though which gives it a kind of cobbled together feel.  For my taste, I think it would be better to pick one or the other and then use it all the way through.
