Temptation

We braved the night and torn 
into tomorrow your eyes concealed 
deception my rapture captured 
silence as my catholic beliefs 
withered my spoken vows began 
to fade you stood fast behold our 
actions will cause harm we knew 
that an yet temptation swarmed 
my balanced virtue and there you 
were calming my sinful nature 
how dare you Adam placing your 
temptress mind within my nature 
I folded causing a sheer malice 
an yet I shan't fear any remorse 
I shall redeem the shadow kisses
beneath lucifers untimely hisses

Eve yielded to temptation. And so trouble began.
