Agoraphobia in a Secret Garden (Free verse) by darylchew
In a secret house of saintly roots,
immersed in the bath of immortality,
there he lay; perfect one.
With the soft glow of the warm sunlight reflected in his eyes,
a young curiosity; the first of our kind.
Peering out of the frosted glass as desire peers out of his jaded heart,
a heart constricted, on the verge of implosion.
Guided by his inner devil towards the sacred apple of Truth,
trembling hands; would they fail him?
Or would he commit the ultimate betrayal, of foolish trust placed
so keen?
Towards humanity.
