Broken Promises - Morning Again

As I continue to try to free myself

I’m restrained by my own vice

A most surprising weakness

That’s so hard to identify

Thinking back upon myself

I often chose without much thought

Much more is of consequence

Pure pleasure or from the heart

Just another addiction

Will I ever gain control

Or will I make the same mistakes

Confusing love and physical lust

I continue to let it trap me

Restrained… By my own actions

Restrained… without emotion

Another aspect of control.

Another time I’ve been deceived

Another choice.

That got the best of me

Broken promises.

For moments of a false emotion

Broken promises.

Never again
