Temptation

Your eyes were ablaze with some
Sweet virgin fire
A melodramatic effigy
To the virtue within you

It tickled me greatly
To see you get all flustered
As if I were some pagan goddess
And you stood, naked, at my alter

I remember you blushing cutely
Each time I told you
The secret colors of my insides
And the ways virtue can be undone
As words were rewritten and
Your hands trembled in mine
I felt the light in you
Dim to my shine

But you were an angel yet,
And it irked me so
That I couldn't spoil your innocence
And watch your darkness grow

But you, like an eagle,
Soared high above me
And flew far from my ministrations
And thus, you are free
