To Cry

When heart's shell cracked
At one time (this only time)
She bites
   a predestined apple
   To suckle my sin
As  my message teeters
A heart's shell has she the time
(this only time)
  When Paris fades
  Into glittering shades
     Create this only time
Silken black              (knit my cozie)
              send me off
   a predestined apple
   of my original sin
                   Twisting form
                   with no center    am i
i only one time
   (this only time)
     Never about you
     Never about you
     Never about you
     But only,
                        for you.

"and Death i think is no paranthesis"-e.e. cummings

I thought this was simply awesome. I think i saw a bit of parts from the bible when you bring in the apple/original sin issue.
Anyhow, I really really enjoyed this poem. I loved it. Very well done.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.
