Temptation

It hits you at the most unlikely moments.
You think that you have been able to successfully overcome it ….in fact, laid it to rest ….buried it deep deep inside.
It bounces back like it had never left.
The lines become blurred.

The rights and wrongs seem to collide, overwhelming you with the urge to just cross over. Standing at the edge last night, the battle between them made it difficult to breathe. The skin tingled with the overload of emotions – anticipation, thrill, fear, doubt, repulsion.
The rebel of the young days questioned why not?

Sipping my coffee today morning, drained and deranged, I let the question wash over me repeatedly. The sun shines brightly outside but a dark gloom has descended all around. Words seem to have dried up today. The fatal attraction is overpowering my sensibilities and I can only wait for the inevitable crash to occur.
