Society

KC C 1998 (Ontario)



A cabin hidden in a forest of flowers
A heart hidden from any evils
Inhale happiness, exhale misery
Armored from emotional artillery
Lacking exposure to heartbreak
Sadness remains foreign
A pure existence
Untainted beauty absent of ego
A trait lost amongst civilization
Our hearts bleed
Our eyes deceive
Beauty is lost
For we are absent of true love

    A tale of Adam and Eve (Mankind) before and after expulsion from the Garden of Eden, a place of idyllic innocence.
