Lingering Sweetness

You say to yourself that it looks really good and you want it.

But you know it's gonna take time.

So you decide you're willing to peel back the layers.

This takes patience.

And you have to throw the bad parts away.

You get to the good parts...

That's what you've been working for all this time.

The sweetness lingers for hours after you're done.

But you'll do it again.

And again.

Each time, a little more willing,

because you know it's worth it.
