The Temptress Inside My Mind Poem by Yoan Konkobo

The Temptress Inside My Mind



I am often times led astray
By this voice inside my mind
Another one is in there with it
But this one speaks a quieter rhyme
The first sings like a muse of sin
Washing me ashore the island of mistakes
Exploring the greatest of temptations
Often not even looking to refrain myself
This voice inside
Speaks of lies and persuades me with dirty tricks
But frankly I'm getting tired of it
I can't keep walking down this path of misfortune
For even if i get all this material fortune
Where will the fortunes closest to my heart be
Family and friends
Slowly pushing them away
While exiling the voice of reason as well
This was the plan it's had in the beginning
But I swear I'm here to stay
I will conquer this temptress of a voice
And be whole once again
