We eye the chocolate, as if it may walk away.
We smell a co-worker's Cheetos;
but we have carrots instead?
When we spot a bag of our favorite chips,
would we buy unsalted pretzels instead?
Never mind the guilt.
It's all a part of temptation.

Toddlers reach for what older siblings have.
Students want all the name brands.
Teens request everything they can not afford.
What's wrong with wanting what you can not have?
It's all a part of temptation.

Guys want wall mounted television.
Ladies want clothes from all the top stores.
Guys reach for that beer bottle,
while the ladies have a glass of wine.
Why shouldn't we treat ourselves once in a while?
Afterall, there's no stopping temptation.
