My lover returned and nothing in my power
Relieved me from the thoughts flooding my head
Dreaming while awake planning the moments
My lover would romance me through the pain
Seeking pleasure while knowing darkness would prevail
I took my lover in

Snatched into the web of insanity
Uncontrollable eating left me spinning out of my right mind
Like a blind dog chasing its tail
Bemoaning to the spirit of a Higher Power
Hopeless and defeated I surrendered

Today I indulge in my lover’s flavor
One meal at a time, three times a day
Weighed measured and committed
And for this I give thanks and praise!
