resisting temptation

I decided to write it like a song

Based on lyrics from Wicked



what is this feeling,

so sudden and new?

this feeling I have

when I talk with you.

my is stomach full of butterflies

fluttering around in array,

my legs won’t stop trembling

with each word you say.


my pulse is rushing,

my head is reeling,

my mouth is moving

what is this feeling?

i don’t want to stop,

but i shut my mouth.

what if i say the wrong thing?

what if this goes south?


from laughing too loud,

to talking too much,

to thinking you actually enjoy

when we get in touch.

resisting temptation

is the best thing to do.

resisting temptation

helps me get over you.


we don’t have much in common.

you are so different than me.

we have clashing beliefs

that you have yet to see.

but underneath these truths

lies my stupid delusion

that maybe in the future,

we can reach a conclusion.


this is loathing.

loathing myself for feeling this way.

from your face, your voice, your clothing,

i want these thoughts to go away.

you are unavailable,

i know that is true,

but you are living a lie

and i can save you.


from constant thoughts

to that one sleepless night,

to thinking of your smile

and how i’m never an oversight.

but even so,

i still know

that resisting temptation

is the best thing to do.

resisting temptation

helps me get over you.


what is this feeling,

so sudden and new?

it comes up every time

i lay eyes on you.


resisting temptation,

i always knew.

resisting temptation,

I can’t get attached to you.


resisting temptation

is the best thing to do.

resisting temptation

helps me get over you.
