Temptation strains under your skin --
a premonition of passion in your eyes,
in cesspools filled with ingenuity;
bathed with a hint of mystery.
Perception flows from the heart,
creating chaos in every blessing,
blooms consciousness in every dream,
and this is yours, child of the stars.
There is truth in you;
in the integrity of thought and
the sorrow stricken pyramids of your ancestors,
there is love in your expression.
Temptation strains under your skin --
a premonition of fearing
the inevitable.
But there is truth in this darkness.
There is love in you.
