I don't think you quite understand temptation until you've broken out in a cold sweat trying to ignore the call of that which makes you forget. until you've gouged your palms with sharp nails resisting your stomach aching for something; anything. you don't understand what temptation can really do until you're standing on the edge waiting for that final breath.

temptation.
I don't think you quite understand temptation until you've broken out in a cold sweat trying to ignore the call of that which makes you forget. until you've gouged your palms with sharp nails resisting your stomach aching for something; anything. you don't understand what temptation can really do until you're standing on the edge waiting for that final breath.
