Temptation
Temptation led me to your door, a husband & child I left at home
I forgive myself … to want so much more
you enticed me
your eyes cast a spell
you tempted me with… your voice
should I feel guilt, or be ashamed? hell no… I only have myself to blame for
resistance to you…futile
I took the vows…I’ve paid my dues, am I wrong…my crazed obsession for you
my child will always
be my side….you say that you accept this
there is nothing else I hide
I ran through pouring rain…. to you, to collapse into your arms
exhaustion leaves my body weak, I want, I lust… I ask
strip the clothes that cling….watch me naked
warm me with your body heat
I’m yours… I give you…. me …. now and every tomorrow, I have granted
I have to leave behind my life…but take my child
to start anew, for all I want in a cruel universe
is a life to share
with you
For The Mag magpietales.blogspot.com.au Another fabulous photo and challenge.
