Forbidden Fruit
Looking so sumptuous
Tempting unknowingly
Edging on onlookers
To do much more than stare
You insist to remain forbidden
But you desire to be claimed
Should I pick this forbidden fruit?
Oh no, I do not dare
To pick you would be lethal
Poisonous in your nature
I fall into your trap
Of great despair
Now I am just another victim
Of this forbidden fruit
Irresistible to the eye
Deadly to the touch
