Temptations
Golden whispers, poisoned lips,fingertips on sinking ships.Shadows dance in candlelight,pulling me into the night.
Silk and fire, chains and lace,danger wears a pretty face.A taste, a touch, a stolen breath,a slow embrace that flirts with death.
I know the cost, I’ve heard the cries,seen the truth behind the lies.Yet still, I step, yet still, I crave—temptation calls, and I obey.
