THE TROUBLE WITH TEMPTATION
Folder:
JOURNAL#8 its like natural gas
you can't really smell its presence
until its just too late
and its highly combustible
it has taken out many a poor unsuspecting significant
other at quite an alarming rate
yet we each still continue to dance dangerously close
to its deadly ledge
willing to take our happiness without any real precautions
into our own little hands
just on a fraction of a chance that we will gain an
added edge
and its our faithful lovers who suffer in the undergoing
of such an obsessive and needless quest
for to capture the 'what once was'
they are each painfully and at times unknowingly
forced to take the ultimate test
accept the man for essentially who he is and not what
he's unintentionally become
a creature incapable of loving only one woman at a time
no longer recognizable as a man but a faithless,
whining , sniveling low life scum...............
