I made a resolution today
A promise to myself
It was realistic, I even made a plan
And it won’t put my comfortable world in disarray
It’s the end of January
My promise is a heavy burden
It rules my life, sleeping and awake
I believe I need to find a sanctuary
But I struggle on, I’m nothing if not stupid
After all it is a promise to myself
So, it is mine to break, to abandon
And to be honest my will is being diluted
So, the day has finally come
My promise is broken, I am again free
My equilibrium is balanced, my world is good
But for God’s sake don’t tell my Mum.
