Temptation

 

You’re like staring down the barrel of a loaded gun,

almost impossible to resist, 

Everything about you is enticing,

you smell like rain, 

you feel like silk,

You whisper my name,

like I’m the last drop of water in the universe, 

Lap me up, 

show me what I’ve been missing,

You’re the danger so close,

that I pray my final prayer,

say my goodbyes,

Because I’m falling,

catch me,

use me,

abuse me,

Everything about you,

was made to be trouble for me,

Forcing me back,

roughly, 

needing,

wanting,

Until I’m nothing left except what you do to me,

Punish me for leaving, 

make me sorry, 

make me hurt,

Threaten me to make me stay,

scare me so I won’t leave,

Make me feel you relentlessly,

subject me to a lifetime of you
