You were
An angel
An apple
A treasure
I wanted to
Be near you,
To be yours
But you are always
Just out of reach
Always slightly ahead
Of me.
And now I realise
That you are a forbidden apple
A dangerous secret.
The temptation is always
There but I know
That if I follow through
Tell you how I
Feel, what I feel
Then I know, that it
Wouldn't just destroy me
But also
You.
For you are the apple
And I am the girl.
You are the box
And I am Pandora
Because no matter how I
Look at it
If we were to ever
Be, then we would bring
Down everything we've
Both worked so hard
To accomplish.
