Small. Orange. Beautiful.
I hold you in my hand.
I look at your exterior.
Unlike the rind of others;
Yours is sweet, delicious.
But I know your secret.
Beneath your sweet exterior,
You house something less than desirable.
Acetic bitterness;
a sour core.
The complementary juxtaposition-
It causes dissonance.
Sweet or sour, please choose one.
It would make life much simpler.

I love how you can write a nice poem about fruit. Inspiring.
The title to this is brilliant. Go figure, considering the person who wrote it. I hope I make you feel good about yourself sometimes, Greggy. I enjoyed this poem quite a bit!
