My parents always preached the famous phrase to me from the bible.

"And Jehovah God commanded the man, saying, of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat.

But of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, thou shall not eat of it."

The forbidden fruit that is. The fruit we were all taught was the fruit of good and evil.

The fruit that ruined the purest of life.

The one fruit that wasn't all that necessary to even think of eating but then we did and ruined it all.

We were all warned. We had to pay our consequences and face the harsh reality because of the forbidden fruit.

Was it worth it... No.

But who cares right? Because we can't possibly resist the ravishing fruit that has been tormenting us now can we?

We can't wait to claw at it with our pointy nails and eat it up till there's nothing more. Till everything's gone and the only way for it to come back is to harvest it.

But how can we harvest it when all the seeds are perished?

When all we have is the dirt and the water. But nothing to ignite the fire.

We were warned.

But we didn't listen.

We still ate from the Forbidden Fruit.
