My Fall

I stand so unsure
since I've known you
You've made me question all

I have no right
to think these thoughts
I am Eve before the fall

Just a nip
I trust myself
I'll stop with just the one

I watch your eyes
You know my hunger
My dear, I am undone

I cautiously pluck
forbidden fruit
Eye it with pure lust

This choice I make
will raze my world
Yet I feel I must

Heaven meets my lips
I venture a sigh
of pure delight

Pleasure was surely
made of this
thus God created night

I lick it from my hand,
this juice
so very sweet

I intently savor
my fall from grace
Satisfied in my defeat

I am made of you
Our souls entwined
You cannot set me free

There is no persuasion
strong enough
for you to let me be

I need you more
With every breath
You have me at a loss

I, like Eve
partook of sin
I pray it's worth the cost
