a rendezvou with sin
It was a rendezvou with wrong dressed up to look like right
Deception served our treacherous hearts to dim revealing light
She stood before me, trembling, clothe in want to be unclothed
and I had come to satisfy her sacrificial pose
An old aquaintance met by chance, come to tempt my soul
and I no different in her eye if truth to us be told
Forbidden fruit upon our lips, the keepers out of sight
Two lies that came to trade themselves on the alter of delight
Why yield with such abandon? The apple wasn't mine
The snake's relentless whisper, "Come to me and dine"
"What harm in wrong?No one knows what's hidden from the light"
But morning rose upon my bed and sun revealed the night
What no one knew awoke in me, I became the lie
The serpent smiled, someone knows - The me within the I.
