Fruit of Knowledge

I would close my eyes To feel life but go unseen Seek my missing heart Gone from when my sleep left me He was my heaven on earth

Great poem! This almost didn't seem like a tanka it was do ingenious and devious! The title fits the subject well, i aways hold respect for those who can manipulate titles in such a way as you have! Love, j.

Thank you very much! Usually I have a lot of problems with titles, but this one fit better than they usually do!
