And they knew before the apple
What it meant of no division
No fear of nakedness
Warmed by the near sound of your voice
Surrounded by beauty and paradise
Always choosing life through avenues of love
Never knowing hate, sadness...
Contrasted with modern layers
Walls impenetrable
Weighing us down in judgment
Thinking we were liberated
Through the knowledge of good and evil
When pure freedom
Could only be fathomed under life
Its fruit a diet we neglected
Preferring the fruit of bondage
Exile
Oh, if it can be done
Bring us back while moving forward

Yay for Dr. Carroll :) The more you read poetry, the easier it should be to understand.
And thank you Melissa (aka love much)!
