Temptation
In the darkest corner of my mind,
A whisper.
Beckoning, urging, longing.
Becoming desperate.
A feeling in my gut.
Wrenching.
It's what I want,
But hearts can be shattered.
No one needs to know...
No one will find out...
The lies I tell myself.
Very convincing.

I love this you captured temptation perfectly, in a way that makes one ask what was tempting you :)

oh this.
a conversation had in many a head. we tell ourselves very convincing lies. but if you don't want someone to find out, don't do it!
a very concise, and well done write.
