The Great Collide

Here fiction collides with reality.
Once thought, never the two shall merge
But what was once just a piece of the plot
A means to move the story along
Is now inescapable. Inevitable.

She was in love. In love with the pain.
A connection. An emotion.
Heart wrenching, but pure.
Fascinated by the fiction.

Tempted to taste. To see.
Thirsting for knowledge.
Eve's protegee.
Can ignorance truly be bliss?

Fiction no longer.
This can't be true.
Desperation exists on film
In the pages of books it's found
But not here.
No, not here.
Keep your Good and Evil.
This knowledge is too much.
Revelation gives way to despair,
Such an unexpected sequence.

Forbidden Fruit,
So much more than a story now.
What's a high without some lows?
What is joy without pain?
Maybe if Eve knew, just maybe,
She would do it again.
