Temptation


 

look in your mate’s eyes, see innocence and trust,
view into your own,  emit promiscuous aura,
opened ears and lenses in nightclubs, trying to find
that one for your parts,
a start of daily trips on train tracks,
naïve while you connive for foreign fingers
rub down your back,
tell the faithful he speak fallacy,
believe own fake stories,
in your mind, you act like you aren’t committing crime,
locked up his love,
behoove you to give yours up too, 2 years bloomed,
unfaithful mind got you ready to uproot,
sunflower love, looking for artificial light late night,
brought this into the relationship,
can’t control your thoughts or lips,
passed time then the attraction terminal,
unknown man walk up prepared for conversational,
conscious forgetting commitment,
body ready sensational.
