Temptations Poem by Trevor Schulte

There are two voices
that speak to me at once
One tells me what God asks
the other tells me what I want
They crush my thoughts
and consume my mind
Leaving nothing left
for me to find
I have to accept
its one or the other
A moment of joy
or an everlasting Father
How can I hold
to something I can't imagine
When there's that reachable joy
which I can fathom
My heart breaks
everytime I choose the wrong one
When I dismiss God's love
for a little bit of fun
There will always be
two different voices
The question is
which will be my final choice?
