Temptation is all around

Tempting

by Nicole Schmidt

Temptation's sweet yet subtle sway
Lures me with promises of pleasure's way.
 
A siren's call that echoes through my mind
A whispered secret, hard to leave behind.
 
It beckons me with tantalizing grace
An ever fleeting thrill, a moment of sweet chase.
 
But wisdom's voice, a gentle, warning
breeze
Reminds me of the dangers that it  may seize.
 
Yet, still I wrestle with the tempting thought
A constant struggle, a battle hard fought.
 
To yield or resist, the choice is mine to
make
And in the end, my character is surely at stake.
