Candy by Friederike Gralle

[27 words]

your love is like candy

so naturally you think you should hide it away from me in a jar

the thing about candy though:

everybody craves it


Friederike Gralle (or Freddi) is a poet from Berlin, Germany, who grew up bilingual on the mission field in Sierra Leone. She works as a screenwriter, but didn’t find her voice until I leaving the church and starting stand-up comedy. Making people laugh is a blessing, but when she gets a little melancholy and starts overthinking her struggles with dating and mediation apps, she often opts for poetry.
