I feel myself making some strides, Thread by thread, I'm letting go of my pride. The feelings I felt days ago aren't illicit, But if I go without, I don't think I'll miss it. He's more than a thing, but still less than a love, He enslaves my thoughts, like a power from above. Flutters in my stomach are unimaginable, I still struggle with my mind to keep my thoughts rational. Weighing the desire of it all with the consequences, It's going to be so hard to wait, I don't think I can resist all the tempting bait. A succulent conception dangling in my face, Depicting love from the heat of the moment is hard for me. I am wondering if I will ever see. So far, this fire within me has never lapsed, And this gift is more than I ever could have asked. I have a willingness to give everything up, This feeling I have been given is more than luck. Though my desire surpasses rational thinking, I'm not going to ruin myself by sinking. If anyone, I would want it to be him, But I'm fighting to get past the eerily-lurking sin. I want to defy the odds and perserveare, Because I want to like what I see in the mirror. I have yet to lack so much self-control. Right now I am going to have to be stronger than my soul. |
