Rotten Fruit by ~CrowOfCoal:iconCrowOfCoal:



There's a girl I know
She's easy on the eyes
I got to say
I could love her

But I'm high and I'm low
And everybody dies
I got to say
That I suffer

Because the forbidden fruit
That I ate
Was rotten
And the knowledge I gained
Wasn't half as great
As the bliss that I felt
In the garden

There's a girl I know
She'll never love me
I got to say
I still dream though

There's a girl I know
I'm dead, but she's free
I got to say
That I'm still low

And she'll never love me
And she'll just never see
What a perfect knight I would be
And I'll never feel bliss
Or her touch or her kiss
But the perfect sight that I see

Because the forbidden fruit
That I ate
Was rotten
And the knowledge I gained
Wasn't half as great
As the bliss that I felt
In the garden

Author's Comments

I wrote this a while back.
I've written a lot of other poetry, but I'm using it for my band, so I don't want to submit it. This was originally going to be for my band, but when I asked my keyboardist if he liked it, he said all my songs were about girls I couldn't love, so I decided not to use it.
Still, I like it enough to put it up here,
