The deceptive lure of temptation tasted.

I’ve been here before.

I recognize the door.

I know what’s on the other side.

What can it hurt, just to take a peak?

I’ll close it quickly right after.

But the lure is strong

my heart pounds faster

This time is different

it won’t be the same.

Lies are planted and eyes are blinded

Just a sip

a little taste

oh, and just one more

No! Not again?

My stomach turns sour.

The taste of death.

The taste of anquish.

Writhing in pain I rush out the door.

    Temptation is there every day and at times it can taste so sweet! Even if it it is not as sweet as you hoped once it has gone the lack of the tempter is worse than a disappointed temptation.
    Its ok if you give in to temptation- most of us do but little of us admit it- life is full of lessons and if we are given the chance to get up and try again- that is what we must do
    sometimes temptation is my closest friend ;)
    I loved it
