I was Eve once
Standing in the garden
Made from the rib
Untouched
And naked
I was Eve once
And he was Adam
And I ate the fruit
And knew it all
While he walked in the garden
Where the tree grew
And remained in his innocence
I was Eve once
And I asked him to eat
To share
To leave
To live harshly
Rather than continue
In our suffocating innocence
I am Eve
Standing outside the garden
While Adam walks alone
And innocent
