a darker poem about the influence of temptation.
I see it. The knife.
The scissors. The pistol.
I could do it right now.
End life. My life. Another's.
Anyone's. I'm feeling it.
We have all felt it. You, me, everyone.
It is the darker side of human nature.
A beautiful rose, but with many thorns.
It is purely and simply temptation.
temptation is bitter sweet.
Temptation is desire.
Give into it.
