Troubled.

Trouble comes suddenly
Stealthily,  crouched
It came to me too,
Unannounced
A little guava seed
Lodged in my teeth
Has refused to budge.
Tried as I much,
I could not pry
The little guy
From my half broken teeth.
Out of sight,
Hidden away
He put up a fight
Without a sway
The tongue battled
And royally lost
But the stubborn fellow
Moved at no cost :( :(
