Say what you want
Do you what you feel
temptation is the motivation
and the motive is tempting

It starts with the thought
and you think it's harmless
that it just goes  away
never to come back, but you're wrong.

It lingers,
skips around in circles inside your head
it toys with you, taunting you
to act upon it, it dares you.

Resist, you try
Fight, you may
Tame it, you can attempt it
but failure is imminent

It's the sweetest lullabye
the catchiest hook
the sexiest opposite ***
the most tempting fruit

It's automatic to want something forbidden
However, do i indulge it ?
Do I dive in?
yes, no, maybe. possibilities swirl around. the cycle is thoughtless. unforgiving.

It's the question that makes us think
the temptation that drives us to the brink
the possibilities that make us walk to the edge
and the conclusion that either makes us turn away or dive in.
