Temptation
I rocked back and forthWhile the blade sat there staring me in the face
After four months of what I thought was goodbye,
an old addiction had come back to haunt me
I pulled my knees to my chest,
and closed my eyes and tried to ignore,
But all I saw was my own blood on my hand
The monster inside me had resurrected,
and was now seeking domination
What happened to my smiles?
What happened to my happiness?
Was I faking it?
Apparently so.
Temptation began to fill me up,
and I held myself tighter.
I was falling apart to pieces,
and my arms were my only duct tape
Tears rolled down my face,
my body began to tremble, and the monster started to laugh
The blade in front of me did not appear like a dangerous sharp object,
but instead,
A beautiful escape to get out
I bit my tounge and reached out
Sadness was gone,
and I slide happiness across my skin.
