Forbidden Fruit

Forbidden Fruit 

Flatter my vanity with your profane kisses. 

Place a dagger in my heart with your lustfull gazes.

Set my body on fire with your treacherous touch. 

I'm at the wrong place at the wrong time. Two wrongs do not make a right. 

I knew where you were taking me. I followed you with open eyes as you took me to your slaughter house. 

I turned up my bravery perhaps a notch too high, saying in a silenced whisper 'let's get this over with!' 

My body movement a mis-configured rhythmic expression of my imagination. 

My soul numb to your affectionate display of passion.  

I came to get hurt, you might as well do your worst.  

But you faulter in your plan, for my lips drip nectar. My body more beseeching than the forbidden fruit. 

Don't be deceived even you the slayer shall fall.
