Adam

Where do we go from here?

Lost from our once paradise

We had it all and still much more

To have, to hold, to love - our only chore

Yet we’ve erased one another

Choices made now displace one another

Sacrificed our Eden to negate one another.

Oh how beautiful would it be to become wise?

Gain the world and see the universe from his eyes…

How dire was this simple mistake

A bite of disobedience was not the sweet fruits taste

Eyes open as a morning flower now forever awake

All thanks to the revered deity, epitomized, a snake.

Arms wrapped around her body, I could not look away yet could not accept

That the one promised to me was so inept

And to return to my arms soiled an unkempt

Her salty streams glistened as she wept

Could he not see this was coming? A story foretold by our creation

Or were we the conception of a failed experimentation

Left to roam the four corners of this barren wasteland

Now with our backs to that which was once our home, hand in hand

Tossed into to the abyss

Scavengers of an unknown land – 2 legged parasites

Slithering in the dark our regret now obvious

No longer blind, no longer hidden, no longer precious

So where do we go from here?

Tossed from our once paradise.
