Forbidden fruit upon a tree,
Forbidden fruit of ecstasy.
Twas' rich with life,
I did not know.
It's nectar sweet,
And smooth to flow.
Forbidden fruit,
Of poisoned passion,
With leaves like vines,
No compassion.
And truth be told,
I never lied.
Twas' all the truth,
To a blind man's eyes.
Forbidden fruit upon a tree,
Thou has gone,
And set me free.
Foolishly I sit broken.
A mere addition to your pile of tokens.

THESTREETS OF TAIWAN
We stand out like white sheep,
stumbling along the crowded Taiwan streets,
tripping on cracked sidewalks
Bewitch Me.
Entrance by your deep desires.
Embarked on a complex quest of lust.
Driven by need, consumed by passion, and controlled
by Caydence Coe
His fingerprints left on my skin,
His breath upon my neck,
And even though it's over now,
I still cannot forget
The way he touched
by S Barnard
Forbidden fruit sealed
Love of mankind
In this world we live
Can one hitherto find?
by Shari Joplin
Forbidden Fruit
forbidden are my passions
forbidden from you
yet to know you in passion
i so long to do
forbidden is the love
