Maybe we all have it in us, the tendency to self-destruct.
Maybe we all feel it in us, the unspeakable attraction toward all that is out of bounds, all that we know we cannot touch, should not touch - all that we are powerless to resist.
Maybe we all feel it, the familiar beckoning...
Just one more bite
Just one more look
Just one more try
Just one more time
Just once more...
When we are drawn like moths to the flame, reaching out with trembling fingers to touch the ethereal flower that poisons...
We forget, there is no turning back.
