Remember Eve

Sweetie, you are poison to me, sucking the strength I’ve worked so hard to acquire and building a false future that will never be. I need to be free from you, but I keep falling into the past. Comparable to Eve, I follow you off the path I should be on, losing track of God’s promise to bring me what’s best. Yet anything you have to offer comes up short, and I don’t want it anymore. I deserve better. I want you to stop haunting my waking and sleeping dreams so that it can be no more than a memory I recall only on occasion.
