"To live would be an awfully big adventure." - Peter Pan


Started in the beginning
Tow souls lost
In a rush of exhilaration
Untouchable
Or were they?
How do we know
What happened exactly?
Two lovers
Caught in temptation
Started in the beginning
He made them perfect
All perfect
No blemish
No mark
No stain
All perfect
Started in the beginning
The temptation set forth
The law put in place
The bitter cravings
For the sweet
Desirable fruit
Started in the beginning
Perfection was lost.
Pulled away
Taken away
Stolen away
Never to be seen again
Well,
Almost never
Started in the beginning
Women
Cursed
With pain
And suffering
Men
Cursed
With treachery
And toil
All
Cursed
With death
And no perfection
Started in the beginning
But His grace
It finds us
We will remember no pain
The toil will not be fatal.
If we repent
We are saved
The fall of man
The fall of perfection
But it all
Started in the beginning
