Tempted

Stolen smiles, lustful thoughts overwhelm me…

Lost in this lingering web of temptation I ponder…

Ripped apart with thinking about you… can’t stop…

Lost in this lingering web of temptation I ponder…

Whispers of sweet nothings take hold… taking a deep breath…I fight against myself knowing it can never be…

Lost in this lingering web of temptation I ponder…

Torn apart knowing you will never know… is it wrong? My body demands my fix… will I get it today?

Lost in this lingering web of temptation I ponder…

You are my dark temptation… will I fall…into…your embrace…
