My awakening was light. A flash and a bang. I was not prepared for what it would bring me, this newfound sense of being. This wanting. My heart began to beat, heavy. I bloomed, a garden deep within my mind, hidden even to myself.

lyrics

My First Temptation
Another soft creation
I’ve never felt this heat within my chest
My worst temptation
A heavenly sensation
I’ve never seen an angel in the flesh

I’ve never felt like this before
Is this my spring awakening
How can someone be so beautiful
Am I just making a big mistake

My First Temptation
Another soft creation
I’ve never felt this heat within my chest
My worst temptation
A heavenly sensation
I’ve never seen an angel in the flesh

Do you believe in love
Do you believe in heaven
Do you believe in love
Do you believe in heaven

My First Temptation
Another soft creation
I’ve never felt this heat within my chest
My worst temptation
A heavenly sensation
I’ve never seen an angel in the flesh

I asked her her name, her story. She laughed.
“How much time do you have?” ... more
