Forbidden Fruit

Forbidden Fruit

I hunger for even a sample

of the fruit that grows so sweetly

I crave to climb into your branches

and bite your soft flesh so gently

For you tempt me so ripe and so tender
I'd savour your luscious sweet flavour

my forsaken succulent treat

divine in your masculine splendour

In darkness I'd sip on the juice

that drips from your hot aching flesh

and I relish even the seeds

that are bitter and deliciously fresh

In bliss I inhale your fragrance

Your flavour has cast such a spell

I am Eve led by the serpent to taste

that which would send my soul straight to hell

Be playful, have fun, enjoy life! You only get to go around once..this time!
