A Beautiful Picture, Sweet Temptation

Good lord how I stare into those eyes I could spend hours, even days just getting lost within the fire So gentle and so mysterious Who am I? I am standing here looking at this beautiful picture A picture so rare that I want it all to myself Not a single soul may touch it Should I become a theif? Or is there a sly way of sneaking its beauty into my hands? Sweet temptation brewing inside my blood I can feel it when it gets close by It's so euphoric I want to get lost in this feeling forever Secrets so personal, deeply hidden inside my heart It burns with rage Burning like a wild fire into the holes of my lungs If only I could stop breathing for just a moment Would it all come true? Such sweet temptation So utterly sweet Devouring the very center of my veins! Im so in love With such a beautiful picture
