She Beckons

I once called emerald haze a soothing friend
Decided to choose a path where clear skies mend

Her whispers still linger so soft and sweet
A fleeting lure and desire I swore not to repeat

A peaceful warmth provided like a siren’s glow
Yet we separated and I completely let go

Temptation taps and plays a melodic disguise
Yet I see right through her with steady eyes

It’s a battle I picked to fight but am unsure why
Sometimes I only seem to be missing out and sigh

She still calls out to me with a coy seductive tone
Her allure whispers, “You’re never alone.”
