Succumbing again to temptation,
Mind shows horrid images,
Others perceptions are horribly wrong,
They have no idea what goes on
In the depths of my conscious,
Cracking, buckling,
Lying to everyone,
Lying to myself,
Can't stop the bad thing,
Can't resist the blight,
Their judgement couldn't be more wide,
Heart's in the right place,
The blight contests for that place,
The blight is victorious far too often...
Access is too easy,
Temptation is too strong,
Staying away is no longer conceivable,
Every little thing brings a chance,
An appalling lack of strength
Sees me snatch at it every time,
Inside, lives the blight,
Whose eyes seek the unseekable,
Mind seeks stimulation in any form,
Control is slipping fast,
Can't keep the blight at bay,
Inside, it coaxes,
Seeking total control,
Edging permanently closer to it...
Find myself succumbing again...
Permanence seems so much easier...
