Resolves

Burn a few bridges if you have to, 

you would need the light to cross the other hundreds in your path

Fresh off the indulgence,
having succumb to the temptation yet again.
I reel in the afterglow of surreal pleasures, 
just as I burn in the remorse of being weak.


I resolve once again,
only this time hoping to keep it.
By summing the strength from deep within, 
I had yet again a perfect start.


Resolve is the strongest
and desires easily winnable, 
when the guilt still prevails,
but only time will tell, which one remains.


The race between the desires
and the determination is on.
Place your bets, 
as it wont be so very long.


One will triumph,
and it will always be the greed.
Resolve only seeks victory
in how long before it concedes.
