That Deceiving Voice

I should have resisted that deceiving voice that entrapped me and made me quickly fall... when silence dominated to conceal noise; and however sorry I am, I felt tall. Devil, why did you choose someone so meak... to do horrible deeds unthought by this mind? Devil, you hide in dense shadows and peak, hiding in caves more afraid than a child. As beautiful things so charming and grand... temptation led all to wrongdoing, but without real compassion and feeling, thoughts clustered together to offend. That deceiving voice kept on coming back... alienating friends who looked to me for help.
