Types of Candy: Metaphor Poetry Part 2

There’s a candy in this world
It’s not called Smarties or Aero
This candy takes a long time to chew-and just when you think it’s finished,
It surprises you with a new burst of flavour
One you’ve never tasted before
To some people this candy is soft
To some, it is hard
To some, it’s a sweet reminiscence, to some it’s a bitter reminder
But to all, there is only 1 such candy
No matter you wealth, no matter how hard you try
You can choose to spit it out early or to chew it through till the end
There will be those who will feed you false words of flattery, empty sighs of praise
But there are also those who will give you their courage, undying support and empathy
In the end, this candy is your own
So think wisely before you chew
