The Garden

Do enlighten me Why do I desire you so? Forbidden fruit that you are hanging temptingly down from a seductive bough Saliva forming in the corners of my mouth daring me to taste the exotic juices of your tounge All the while knowing that I would never get more than just a taste For while you walk the day I inhabit the night This knowledge does not extinguish the flames of lust that burn within the depths of my loins Was Eve this tempted by the fruit she so daringly plucked? How do I pluck you from the light of your noon And enclose you in my arms under the shroud of my midnight? I am not blinded by the truth, the truth of reality But simply blinded by the sheer fact that I desire what will never be mine Be glad that I know That i am aware enough not to try and pull you into the light of the celestial bodies that give my nights a soft glow But know should you decide to see what the night skies offer I will pierce your skin and taste what fills you Allowing you to simply exist in pleasure Until your sun causes the stars to fade away in your return to the day
