Lost paradise
Desire despite deception, brings malice and objection,
Lies be told of evil, since temptation took repreavel.
Casting shadows in the garden, as the fruit became hardened.
And the serpent chewed its tongue, and ate the innocence of the young.
Gasping for breath, she took her first step,
And knowledge that led, humanity in its stead.
Abandoned became, man in Gods name.
And removed them from heaven on earth,
Twas when hunger was given birth.
And chains were locked, on man condemned.
On earth, in hunger, as death descends.
And good and evil, was taught to men.
Blinded by cognition all could apprehend.
