Possessed
Vows I made and vows I broke.
All rational thought had left me.
I knew I was lost as soon as he spoke
But no sense could I then see.
My actions I could not control.
I have no sensible explanation.
In his arms I now felt whole.
My heart , it sang with elation.
This was not the way I was raised,
To lie and betray someone so kind.
At my own actions I was amazed.
Perhaps I'd just lost my mind.
Yes, perhaps I was possessed somehow
And the devil made me break my wedding vow.
