Temptation

by Esther WG

Everyone is born with some knowledge of 
what is right and what is wrong 
Mostly, we are tought from a young age
what we can and cannot do
 
but ultimately we all want to test the limits 
to take advantage of free will
Even though Conscience keeps us in check 
the Other Voice seems to continue, louder 
 
The war between good and evil
it is constantly fought in the battlefields
of our hearts and minds
Good is simply Good, but Evil
Evil seems luxurious 
 
Praise be to God who always makes a way to follow good!
