ADAM AND EVE

Have you ever wondered about life generally even before earth was birthed?

Have you ever questioned yourself why God allowed so much to be the way they are?

What about the story of Lucifer and the fallen angels? 

What about thoughts about Man's existence and rest of the world we know today?

All the questions will keep on and on but you'd barely get answers. Some say they are mysteries and can't be really explained or understood. 

Well just like few thinkers in my shoes, this poem was inspired by these questions I desire clearness to, but got disappointed at my quest. The thirst refused satiate and my hunger lingers on.

This POEM basically tries to paint a picture and the possible scenarios of what happened in the GARDEN OF EDEN where our 1st parents - ADAM and EVE inhabited. A heaven on earth, a place of total comfort and tranquility...

The 1st part of the POEM tries to explain who the real enemy is which is SIN... Here SIN is personified.

The 2nd part tries to explain the unsettled hidden thoughts/desires of Eve who yielded to the voice. Whose voice exactly?

The 3rd part is where Adam (labelled as Curiosity) took the leftover from Eve and activated the world we know today. 

Well there's so much to say about this piece but I would like your feedback and thoughts about this.

Thanks... Don't forget to drop your COMMENTS, LIKES and SHARE.

ADAM AND EVE

I need not to conquer Satan,
Principalities and power in high places,
Demons, poverty and mischievous miseries
The only enemy to conquer/defeat is SIN.

It kills faster than the world's deadliest diseases
It cripples the mind,
Cages from behind
It kills, whatever the heart wills,

Steals your aim
And destroys the soul.

Alas! behold his Relatives
RULES and LAWS
They curb and restraint
our maneuverability like the caged bird.

Hmmm, how should we walk with the head motionless, 

or Talk with sealed lips?

Breaking free haunts and freedom calls beckoning.
Ignoring this call displeases me

But I need a change!

That auctions me to action
But then will this end well?
How would I know if I don't try.

Experience invites me on a date
The date I have so long thirst.
For a second my heart bumps into a hurdle
I haven't felt this way before
Is this a good sign or bad omen?

I stretched my hands to Experience
And I embraced destiny,
Marching rules and laws on her jaws.

Through an encounter,
Sharply, my eyes flashed brightly as though a torch
I couldn't imagine what my world is until now.

You want to know?
Curiosity nodded
I passed on my experience and we saw the same.
Conscience judged me and shame sets in.
Oh my! What have I done?
