Temptation


She carried the weight on her shoulder Looking for retort, looking for closure What many view as a dark treachery Was finally seen as energy She said " will you come with me?" He says " for eternity Ruin your reputation And live freely Spread your wings But remain flightless You'll still move You'll still exist" She said " I'm so unaware" From the haunting sounds of the necromancer Removing the plague society cast on her like cancer He said "To say "No" is a full sentence To know is to be aware you don't have the answer"
