Forbidden Fruit Part 1 & 2
A Poem About Desire
A fruit so ripe
Tender to the touch
A sensual aroma
That I crave so much
Seductive to the eyes
Enticing my already lustful mind
So unique is the fruit I seek
But forbidden is what it is to me
As the wind blows
I inhale the aroma from the air
Capturing my mine
Ignoring all warning signs
Snatching the fruit from the vine
As I devour what was to be off limits to me
Guilty of a crime with no evidence to convict
But scenes of my crime linger in my mind
Still tasting the passion for the fruit
As the desire to have more becomes so strong
Nothing satisfying this hunger growing inside
My body weak as the thoughts of being fed fill my mind
Wanting to have more of what I should not
But still not satisfied
I seek more of what is forbidden to me
Part 2
Clenching my heart
As the fruit slips from my hands
Poisoned by my own desires
Dying from my own lustfulness
Heart becoming cold
Wishing I had listened to what I was told
Repercussions I would not have had to face
If I had not been weak in the first place
Tears falling from my cheeks
As my heart becomes weak
Slumping to the ground
Screaming but without sound
My body feeling numb but also full of pain
The fruit slowly begins to rot
As the smell does the same
No longer wishing it was mine
But laying here it all becomes clear
It’s just what I had feared
The pain I feel is caused by my own desires
And as I watch the same fruit grow
From the seeds spilling out of this now rotted fruit
Slowly another girl approaches
With the same desires as I
And as the pain returns as I remember my encounter
I sit and wonder
How long will it take?
For the poison to set
And begin to break her down as well
