Be Not Tempted By Gold's Glittering BrightsBe Not Tempted By Gold's Glittering Brights
Where couldst man find rest when heart has deceived
loved ones he wouldst happily give his all,
whilst on dark paths, false laurels thus received
profits only fools under fallen walls!
Shadows presenting wicked and false lights
oft penetrate even truest of hearts,
find only...

''When Best Friends Are Tempted'': An Honest Look At Modern RelationshipsA woman friend, of gorgeous pulchritude,
presents a man with an experience
of tantalizingly erotic mood:—
to him it is a most pleasant "hindrance."
A guy friend of strong, chiseled, sexy good looks
makes a woman self-conscious, and confused,
when reading, "Fifty Shades of Grey" (soft-**** books),
and thinking of him while...

- Tempted To Madness -My impulsivity gives me a lesson
For a long time the words in me have been quiet
they embrace me on all sides, I do not hear
While the ghosts dance gracefully in the shadows
// I'm not without sin
_ feel my cold skin
Oh, the fear breaks...

Tempted EyesMy Heart me tempts, at staring of her eyes,
as if but I, was like a Feast to them;
When she, at me, does glare, my Heart echoes,
"Glory to Thee" and I but start to Blush;
Can I but not utter a word to her,
be it in mind...

Death TemptedCould I have done something
Was I not listening
You showed me the ropes
Made me the man I am
Would things be different
If I didn't leave for home
Could you have stayed alive for me
Now I'm missing a piece of my soul
Didn't you know what this does
Leaving...

To Attempt To Not Be TemptedTo attempt to not be tempted,
It requires so much will.
But to actually not be tempted,
Is a dream one doubts to fill.
To attempt to not be tempted,
Is beyond a dream that's true.
Yet it takes a certain greatness,
One strives to follow through....

Be Thou Tempted Not, Dear SoulBe thou tempted not, dear soul,
By all that glitters before thy eyes;
Luxuries they are, but the cheapest goal
That thou shalt bag in the nets of Paradise.
However at thy sight vanities take toll
And temptations within thy bounds arise,
To the spite of them all thy objections roll
—O,...

shall I yet awaken to the buffet of your wings?

to enfold me, trembling

Dramatic Monologue
Tempted By DesireThis world that engulfs us is filled with obstacles,
the dark ambitions grab you, with it's tentacles.
Deception, lies and lust, make up his arsenal.
Desire wreaks it's havoc and the devil comes to call.
Your struggles make you weak and then you lose control.
Temptation by desire, leads us...
