A poem about the Garden of Eden.
Walking in the garden of Eden with you.
In innocence as a child,
Hearing the voice of the serpent bewitched,
By his wily words bequiled,
The taste of temptation so sweet in my mouth,
Won't you share this sensation with me,
For he said we would not perish and die.
Should we eat fruit from the forbidden tree.

Lying in the garden of Eden with you,
Now naked in your sight,
I can hide the truth no more,
Even though I know wrong from right,
When you look in my eyes and touch my skin,
A fire just burns from within,
But am I truly evil,
If I commit the original sin.
