Can’t…
I can’t begin to chronicle what has been taken away…
…the events that has led me to this…
I’ve walked away before but here I am,
only once more,
praying you indulge me like before.
It’s just so strong…
this force, your presence, these feelings
that guide me to you… even turn…
I find my way to you.
So foolish to want that which I can’t have…
but oh so tempting and juicy…
that fruit of forbidden flavors…
that nectar; I have in my hands
and can’t attempt to savor…
to partake… a burden I care not to bare…
Oh How My Heart Breaks!
Couldn’t I just take you?
…of course… I can…
It’s just time and planning… isn’t it
easy?
I think it would be easy…..
It would be….e…a…s..y…
to lay down and die for pleasure’s gain,
cry blood for heaven again,
give love despite my hearts pain…
But it was me who placed my form in tortures midst..
it’s me that took what I wanted…
Now it’s me that’s going to stand firm against it
Or stand firm until my human nature consumes me…
placing myself in the midst of this fury of feelings I have
Yes…these feelings I have…
I know their pure of heart… but their still bad…
Can I be forgiven for where they have gone?
Can I ?
I’ve already pressed the fruit across my lips,
hoping to bite
it smells so sweet…
and my strength,… my will is eluding me.
NO!!
It can’t and shouldn’t be…
the lust for it is getting the best of me…
It’s folding around and holding all of me,
where’s divine intervention, when I need it in front of me?
Just brush it against my teeth,
just one press and I’ll be in heaven.
on a moments high…
I’d like to retreat…
but I’ve gone past the point of reason…
trying to hold on to sanity….
I’m living and seeing it; and still can’t explain it…
I want it, even tho you forbade it…
I’m Going To Have IT!!
Even if I have to… detain it!
…teeth sunken in,
nectar rolls on my tongue,
heart fulfilled,
I’m so high…
consequence eludes this moment
I’m just living for this……….
………YOU and I

I havent added any of these pieces to the site in a long time and well it was something on twitter that got me thinking of this one. So I decided to share. For those of you who are new Dual Perspective is a joint venture where my partner and I split the creative process right down the middle of every poem. Each piece is written in a “perspective”. Examples would be male and female, pros and cons, one person, love or lust. Personally I am very fond of the ones where it appears only one person has written it. Well all the work follows the same tone and its a good size of work we have together. So I hope you guys enjoy. Please feel free to tell me what you think.
“Forbidden” is about wanting or lusting after someone or something you cannot or should not have. The struggle knowing what is right and what is wrong and how you choose to act upon those feelings.
If anyone is interested in checking out the other poems already posted from Dual Perspective I am adding the link to the “category” to this post here>>> https://daabsentee.wordpress.com/category/dual-perspective/
As Always…
Stay Positive!
