Array ( [sid] => 157387 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Temptation [time] => 2010-02-09 10:37:00 [hometext] => [bodytext] => I just wanna close my eyes
And give in to the desolation
Let my heart and soul go free
And give in to this temptation.

But your presence brings me back from the brink
Your hand pulls me up as I begin to sink
Your voice breathes life back into me
A new perspective, I finally see.

I just wanna fall from the edge
Dip into the abyss of the lonely
Curse my mind as I hesitate
And think of you only...
Cold winter winds blow through me
Can't be strong for this duration
But I hold my breath and think of you
Struggle not to give in to the temptation.

And your love brings me back from the brink
Your kiss renders me helpless as temptation shrinks
Your eyes shine light and hope into me
A new point of view, I finally see.

I will not give in to this temptation
And I won't avoid this confrontation
Your love is a stronger temptation
And I will focus on that relation. [comments] => 1 [counter] => 122 [topic] => 61 [informant] => MoonlightKiss [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => selfstruggles )

Temptation

Topic: selfstruggles

I just wanna close my eyes
And give in to the desolation
Let my heart and soul go free
And give in to this temptation.

But your presence brings me back from the brink
Your hand pulls me up as I begin to sink
Your voice breathes life back into me
A new perspective, I finally see.

I just wanna fall from the edge
Dip into the abyss of the lonely
Curse my mind as I hesitate
And think of you only...
Cold winter winds blow through me
Can't be strong for this duration
But I hold my breath and think of you
Struggle not to give in to the temptation.

And your love brings me back from the brink
Your kiss renders me helpless as temptation shrinks
Your eyes shine light and hope into me
A new point of view, I finally see.

I will not give in to this temptation
And I won't avoid this confrontation
Your love is a stronger temptation
And I will focus on that relation.

For me, this is an excellent write.
very well written.

I just wanna fall from the edge
Dip into the abyss of the lonely
Curse my mind as I hesitate
And think of you only...
Cold winter winds blow through me
Can't be strong for this duration
But I hold my breath and think of you
Struggle not to give in to the temptation.

And your love brings me back from the brink
Your kiss renders me helpless as temptation shrinks
Your eyes shine light and hope into me
A new point of view, I finally see.

Take care
Fuzzy
