Temptation

It was not her usual saunter

She knew she shouldn’t be there

The free ticket she was offered

To no new frontier, but a lair

Previous redemption fluttered through her mind

She worked hard to achieve that goal

But loneliness threw itself, to be confined

Settling inside her heart and took its toll

She saw the temptation

Rising from his seat

She knew she should not

Should make a quick retreat

He hurried over, seemed pleased to see her now

Unfortunately for her, she forgot her sacred vows.
