You Are Its Garden Of Eden Poem by RIC BASTASA

someone is hooked
on you

you avoid a hooker
as though you are
a clean sheet of
paper

someone is madly
in love with you
and you refuse to
understand it

do you think that
the hooked one is a leper
sick with you and
you want to avoid?

gracious! what the hell
has happened to you?
selfish, and aloof
behaving like a wolf

take that love
close your eyes and
feel

in loving you lose
nothing
you give, and the
world becomes yours
forever

give love a chance
let it live and bloom
you are its garden
of eden
