Cherries

I know when I got the nickname of Cherry

he wasn't talking about the fruit

he was talking about one of my favorite characters

in one of my favorite books

and how she saw the good in everyone

and stood up for what she believed was right

since that day, things have changed for me, Cherry

I eat a lot more cherries now

because they remind me of myself

(does that make me a narcissist?)

because I'm sweet yet tart at the same time

and I'll find a way to stain you

even if you're careful

wouldn't it be ironic

if I dyed my hair cherry red?
