A tear rolls down my face <br />As I recover from the mistake, <br />That will continue to fill my mind <br />And clutter it with thoughts to overtake <br /> <br />I begin to add to the blame <br />Of foolishness and remorse, <br />Of the past regrets <br />From the days once before <br /> <br />I keep asking for forgiveness <br />But continue to give in <br />To the temptation of pleasure <br />That soon comes to an end… <br /> <br />I need someone to help me <br />To rid me free from this pain; <br />To deliver me from the torture <br />And agony that seems to remain <br /> <br />Set me free from this bondage; <br />Never ending battle, without a win… <br />That consumes my mind of thoughts <br />Then restarts this cycle of sin…<br /><br />Shelby Lanier<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/another-mistake-4/
