I’m not weak.
And to be honest, I’m not strong either..
I’m the perfect balance of both;
I’d bet that you are neither.
Your weakness of the flesh,
with your emotions suppressed,
drowning in temptation,
but oh sweet baby, I’ve not tempted you yet.
I’m resistant to your attempts at luring me in
Relentless promise of sex,
of pleasure,
of…..sin..
If you thought you had me,
HA! Think again.
I’m not to be used as a toy
that you can use up
again,
and again,
and again.
No no…
I won’t strike a deal,
I won’t bargain with you in blood
I won’t do as you say, even if you say please
Even if your darkest desires brings me to my knees.
I don’t care about your warm eyes,
or that God forsaken smile.
I don’t care about the things that your wicked tongue can do.
there’s not a single thing that you can say
that will make me submit my will to you.
You just want something that you can control,
I’ll tell you this once…
I’ll never fit the mold;
and even if you’re a handsome devil,
I’ll never sell my soul.
– Poetic Gawdess

Great write PG.
Those that yield to temptation fail to see the price they have to pay and often become addicted to choice of drug…. booze,food,gambling ,porn,sex,excersise etc.To yield occasionally is being human…

Absolutely Peter, you get it. The price is too high, and I am too cheap. 😉 Thanks for reading. xx
I agree with Fia, “defiance” suits this poem well. Not to mention the flow of this piece!
