Iron Control

Sometimes I Seem to Forget How Valuable I Can Be. I Let Things Drag Me down Along with Opinions of Me. As Long as I Have No Desire, To Fulfill Dreams of My Own, Then There's Nothing I Can't Do As Long as My Needs Leave Me Alone. I'm Glad My Own Wants Are Gone, Now I Can Do What I Feel Is Right I Fought with Me for Awhile But I've Finally Won the Fight I Buried My Selfish Streak Way down Deep in My Soul. And I Pray with All My Heart That I Can Keep this Iron Control. This Is Not the First Time That Myself Escaped and Came Out, Wanting and Needing Happiness, And Taking Me on the Wrong Route. But You Can Bet Your Last Dollar It Won't Happen Anymore. No One on this Earth Will Ever Come Through My Closed Door. Connie Moore 1 15 93
