Forbidden Fruit

You were my
Forbidden fruit

But I’ve never
Been good with
Regulation

It made you
All the more
Entrancing

Eyeing you
From the other side
Of the garden

Always in my reach

Alcohol and desire
Tempting me farther

I bit you

And you bit back

And this one night
Of flavour

Of misbehaviour

Wilted you

Rotted you

For I couldn’t
Put you back
On the tree.
