To be or Not to be

Born as Eve in unexpected paradise
Gleefully gambling
As they roll the chancy dice
Hearts are rapt
When it gazed each other's eyes
Awaken the sin
Something they want to seal in ice

No one could save them
Not even a man in Cape
Lovers have chosen
To be their own sweet escape
Prismatic letters
Are written on a teensy tape
Forever hidden
Underneath the couple's napes

Truly forbidden
Yet she nibbled on it fresh
Indeed, this modern love
Is an entangled mesh
Effaced the bleeding gates
With a grass-like flesh
May their hearts rest
In an old parfleche.
