GIVING IN TO TEMPTATION !
The accusations arrive,
As my mind wanders.
Should I, shouldn't I ?
Relentless questions about my choices.
My heart says Yes, go on,
My head holds me back.
Always fighting my guilt,
Not knowing actually, why ?
Was I induced from birth,
To carry this dilemma ?
These patterns of indecision,
That could lead to sin.
What is this odd device,
That ridicules our nature,
And replaces it wholly,
With fear of our being ?
And when I finally fall,
Into one way of endeavour,
I doubt constantly the sanity,
Of a choice made in earnest.
God damn these voices,
The evil jury's accusatory eyes,
And my doubting desperation,
I will feel her wrath.
But as sweet as honey,
Is the taste of you,
Satisfying upon my tongue,
And my pulse races now.
Throwing caution to the wind,
And my conscience to the pyre,
Dreading, yet invigorated,
That I can love at all.
Wouldst that I overcome,
Latent fear of my failures.
Hounded by my dreams,
Yet to be fulfilled.
And here I can rest,
No sin do I feel,
For laying down with you,
And giving my heart.
