FORBIDDEN FRUIT

FORBIDDEN FRUIT

Why does forbidden fruit taste the sweetest

Gives the most pleasure and fulfilment

Is the act of saying no

The rebel within us says go

Like the grass looks greener on the other side

It isn't really but the rebel within wants to decide

But satiated it's no longer sweet

It's no different to others to eat

And like the grass use the eyes of your heart

For really both sides you can't tell apart

Lust unlike love has many faces

It dwells within its many voices

And withers and dies like autumn leaves

Creating disenchantment restlessness and unease

Spreading its poison like a disease

Till we are left with nothing at all

For forbidden fruit has destroyed it all

It may at first have the sweetest taste

But you'll find only bitterness in your haste
