This temptation You were just a witness In sickness, in illness Resentment turns to lust Only passion with no trust All goes dark, in the end Actions we try to defend Battered and bruised Letting go I refused My faith goes hand in hand Nothing goes as planned With only lies and deceit Everything is set on repeat A past always grabbing hold Emotions, memories, turning cold Escaping with limits, nothing stays Vanishing, these forgotten days Craving a desire These urges always on fire Dreams turn to ash Choices, mistakes, seem to clash The void is real This anguish doesn’t seem to heal Thoughts of you, only consume Remaining to wonder and assume Words of the forsaken An eternal sleep, never to be awakened Here to be left behind Our paths forever entwined Caged in denial, frustration Alone we break, with temptation
