Nibbles of Temptation

Temptations allure influenced only by the physical.  Then further made curious by a simple comment of “you smell good” or an undeniable look of “I want you”! 
With that your voice seems to change becoming sultrier. 
From there you want to reach out and touch, but when you do, just the simplest of touch to an exposed arm gives your body unexplained chills to the flesh.
 
Temptation is a master manipulator at making its presence known at the most reluctant of times; be it in a relationship or not...  It can consume our thoughts and intrude our brain with life’s cliché’s of the ever popular “Life is to short”…”Here today gone tomorrow”…”Live in the moment”…And of course the famous quote by Nike…”Just do it”! 


Are these suggestions genuine or authentic enough in their meaning to just do the inexcusable…Or is this the crap we tell ourselves before the inevitable rears its ugly head?  

Our inner uncertainty teases and tells us that we must explore the pull of this mental foreplay, if only for a minute, a second even.  And should it turn into something longer than anticipated then we must take it day by day, expecting nothing more or less. 
Convincing yourself  to keep it easy, a few meet and greets, mild conversations, with a few drinks here and there, and always ending the day or night with just a few hugs or two and friendly kisses to the cheek, ridding any suggestive thoughts of groping,  tongue to tongue  oral imageries of intimacy.   

How is it that we can deny temptation with all its inviting meanings of seduction, desires to have or do something you know you should avoid! Enticement, influenced by excitement, hope or desire… The shameless pursuit of simply wanting to know what it’ll be like to have you physically inside me? 
 
Relinquishing all you know to be mentally and sexually gratifying; simply nibbles and thoughts of unexplored temptation.
