Tomorrow I'll Be Strong

[ntropyincarnate]

Well, here I go, I'm failing once again.
Once more I'll eat until the pain is numb.
Drown deep in sorrow's swift, if fleeting, balm,
Forget my cares in sweet, though bitter, calm.

But still I can't ignore the stabbing guilt,
Although I know tomorrow I'll be strong.
Tomorrow I will starve away this sin.
One day is all it takes - but the day is long.

But I know I'll make it somehow.
I know I must.

Awww, that is sad. We can have some treats in life... but if the treats take us over, then that is when we are in trouble. Cut some slack and take little bites ... the guilt won't hit ya as hard!

I enjoyed the poem and its message to me. Take care, Kizzo :)

it is sad. But I kind of like it...
May I make a suggestion? Consider substituting "but the day's so long" with "but the day is long"
By doing that, you keep the syllables working, but maintain the quality of the poem.

Thanks, I'll do that.
