I am Eve, you my forbidden fruit.
Filled with desire am I, but also apprehension.
Take that fruit and learn, but feel the shame,
Or keep the innocence, along with biting curiosity...
To whom do I owe this
Odd fascination? Certainly not you,
For you've been nothing but a friend.
Not even a glimmer of temptation.
Nor I, for I've only known you
As a friend. Who then, I ask.
Is it fate, her wicked ways
Binding us close? Or perhaps
I've gone mad, and I'm
Madly loving you...
Do I dare continue living
Pretending you love me, though
I truly love you? Or will I
Forever die without love, for
You are the one I want.
A strange love this is. One without
Words or physical need. Yet I
Crave your touch, and your words
Will be mine to hold dear.
