Rotten Apples

Hardened skin and softened soul,
seemingly ripe but really faux,
scarlet cover and browned inside,
looks as if there's nothing to hide.

Bitter rind and insipid core,
what looks iniviting is really abhorred,
five seeds but no life within,
usless as a forgotten sin.

Once was sweet but now is sour,
the purpose of it now devoured,
it sits on the table everyday,
waiting to be thrown away.
