Forbidden Fruit

I had a rendezvous with wrong

disguised to look like right

Deception clouds the flirting heart

to dim revealing light

She stood before me clothed

in want to be unclothed

And I was there to satisfy

her sacrificial pose

An old acquaintance, met by chance

come to tempt my soul

and I, no different to her eye

if truth to all be told

Forbidden fruit, forbidden bed

the keeper far from sight

come to gratify ourselves

upon the altar of delight

I fell with such abandon

the apple wasn't mine

But the snake's relentless whisper

"Come with me and dine".

"What harm in wrong, if none will know

such secrets hide from light"

But morning woke upon my bed

and light revealed the night

the night is gone, the secret lives

I must live the lie

The serpent smiles, someone knows

I can not hide from I!
