Forbidden Fruits

Our handmade gifts were given in fear and joy  
by young bodies filled with lust and hope for a future.  
Oh, what pleasures we found in the making of these gifts!  
 
As imperfect hearts broke over time, we sought pleasure in others.  
Fruit once treasured and shared only by two,  
fell freely from limbs shaken by strangers’ hands.    
 
Still, I find pleasures in life, sucking sweet juices from forbidden fruits.

Author's Note
Trying to describe the sweeping changes that happen over time. The photo is of my first handmade gift in this life. She's now and finding her own sweet fruits.
