Plague of Lust

Millions are ensnared day by day
By what seems to be something of normality
There are those who are in no danger
But so many others who are in for shit

Lust entraps man with its allure
With its intoxicating feel and hype
Many fall victim to its bite
Some are toothless and some are barbed

Diseases transmitted through the flesh
The sins done could last forever
For every time you fall to its tease
You could be infected with deadly pathogens

As the plague of lust spreads
Across this overly populated world
The diseases spread across as an epidemic
Yet no one seems to care and they keep going

Trapped in the hold of its calling lure
Better watch yourself so you don’t falter
Pathogens of death and suffering could spread
Right into your system and make you regret life itself

Not only does it spread pestilence like butter
It also decimates what relations between human-kind
It can make you or break you for all you life
So it’s best just to resist the insistence

Cheating upon your lover with yet another
From the hormonal dance lust brings about
Will ruin what reputation you’ve had forever
Crushing your hopes of ever remaining sanctified

It seems so volatile yet so intoxicating
Not enough or too much could rip you to shreds
It’s best never to begin it at all
Or you could start a chain that could be your death
