TEMPTATION

Something a little whimsical.

TEMPTATION

Shafts of sunlight through the windows

A pounding heart within my breast,

Temptation all around me

Facing my greatest test.

I have seen your smiling face

And heard sweetness in your voice.

In my mind there is confusion

And yet I can't help but rejoice.

A beautiful gown adorns me

As I rush to morning's first glow.

Shall I run to you or run away

How shall I ever know?

Decision made and I care not

What the future may hold for me,

I am rushing towards you my Darling

Hold out your arms for me.

In the flush of the dawning

And in morning's first light,

Tousled hair about my shoulders

I know my decision is right.
