Lust, passion and temptation

Temptations of the Flame

In shadows cast, by passions fueled,
Lust's flame ignites, where hearts are ruled.
A primal dance, a whispered breath,
Desire's grip, the soul bereft.

In tangled limbs, the senses soar,
A symphony of yearning's roar.
Fingers trace forbidden trails,
As ecstasy the heart unveils.

But oh, the perilous allure,
A thirst unquenched, a soul unsure.
For lust, a fleeting, fiery blaze,
In its embrace, the heart betrays.

With hasty steps, it leads astray,
The mind ensnared in passion's sway.
Yet passion's blaze, it fades in time,
Leaving emptiness to climb.

In shadows cast, regrets may bloom,
As longings fade, like waning moons.
Seek love's embrace, pure and true,
For in its depths, a life anew.

Let not the sirens' whispers blind,
To deeper truths that love may find.
In love's embrace, the soul shall thrive,
With lust transcended, hearts arrive.
