Adam’s apple

If I was a man…I’d make my move

Eve’s descendant

As she watches the serpent

Hypnotic sway, tempting her

Mesmerised. Watching. Wanting

Fruit

For her eyes to your hips

Fast slow slow fast faster

Each movement calling out

Screaming to me

Come. Take

Fruit

Your hips, the beat

Working together, intoxicating

Frantically craving

Needing succulent

Fruit

My trembling hands

I would gladly

Paint them on you

If only you would let me

Taste mouth-watering

Fruit

The devil always follows through

You are not so gracious

You’re the hope of bliss and that and

Fruit

Author's Note

And if I was from Paris, if I was from Paris
I would say “Oooh la la la la lala”

"my trembling hands/ i would gladly/ paint them on you"

such a great image...lots of them in this.

the tempting, the imagined lovemaking...but the fruit held back or pulled away.

and to say, you are not as gracious as the devil...wow.

the speaker speaking to the forbidden fruit...oh let me taste, please.

i like the Eden reference in this unrequited love poem.

nice

That 3rd stanza really brought this home for me. It was already dripping with sensuality, but that took the cake... or should I say "fruit." Well done!

[Mia]

HAHA! Yeah...fruit! Thanks so much! Nice to have you by.

[Travis Gibson (poetic heroics)]

It was a pleasure, and one I plan to repeat.

This is succulent to the highest degree possible. Sultry and dark and deep and oh so tempting. Amazing work, Mia.

YAY for your awesome taste in music! And thank you for your lovely words :)

Haha woo! I almost went to see her once but ended up having to take care of a sick person. Guess how happy I was about that lol

Always very welcome!

[Mia]

Unless the sick person was dying I would leave them to fend for themselves *_*
