split me open with the force of yourself
and take everything i have
some parts of me won’t go willingly
but others will submiss
i recommend speaking to my skin
as it will make for better flavour

Oh this is an intriguing one. I like the imagery, the use of the fruit - entirely stubborn when it wants to be, to yield its fruit. I think, you use this to represent getting to know someone, to share oneself with another, good and bad. You want to share, to open up with this person. Perhaps they have an element of control over you, which you want to submit to... Ah that's just my thoughts... It's very clever. I like this.
Well said Tyler! The mind is a curious thing. While reading your poem an old joke surfaced: What is the difference between a Pomegranate and a Handgranate? The Pomegranate tastes better!
