Eater's Lament

By now my diet quandary should subside.
Refrigerator dim upon my frown,
Long shadows from the eclipsed light can't hide,
The tide of want and need in which I drown.

Cheese Doritos peek down from on their perch,
Thin Mints, frozen,in my mind do beckon,
Ice cream, willpower depleting, does lurch,
Alone and tempted, scarce can I reckon.

I tell the lies I must to be fulfilled,
One splurge, one day, three days won't make you fail.
I chew and tear and taste and cry, heart chilled.
Tomorrow judgement finds me on the scale.
