Temptation
A look, nay a mere glance
a mutual recognition
a dare to take a chance
an invite to perdition
all was right, all was fine
the moment ere you looked
your life a goblet of white wine
a meal deliciously cooked
you thought that you were happy
but it was mere contentment
morphing into misery
sliding to resentment
now plunged into confusion
by sparkling velvet eyes
sanity now illusion
truths turned into lies
you spend your nights awake
staring at the ceiling
your heart is full of ache
you've lost that lovin' feeling
the temptation to indulge the
the temptation to indulge the aweful feelings? My mind does that sometimes. Indulging fears. It can be quite a fight with myself to stop allowing love to be my existence. This is what your poem made me think of. Especially after having a few days of fighting my tendencies toward misery. Thankfully, I chose love and feel much better.
