Fruit of Wisdom
Fruit of Wisdom
Is this like finding an ancient apple grove?
That will not share its fruit with me?
Loss without ever tasting
The Apple
Eve had Adam
Am I lilith?
Alone
With the knowledge
What good is the knowledge?
If I have no one to share it with?
It is a fruit that I have lived without
For years…
No wonder I have stopped wandering the hills
Looking for love.
I don’t want to be alone.
The wind teases me.
Is there something to Lilith being a demon of the wind?
Yet the Air of my Gemini
Is always the twin.
I yearn for my twin
The cards have simply fallen
The Hermit stands alone.
Is there not always a lantern in the image?
Waiting? Watching? Seeking?
The outgrowth of my mind
The voice that does not rest
Seems the shadow of my twin
The dark breeze that whispers
You will always be alone…
