Stronger Than This

Another week with
Missing appointments
More disappointments
And broken promises
It's a well known prose
Of meeting someone
without a stolen rose
I should have known better
I should have had more care
I should have seen that stare
I should have recognized
The tattoo on the back
The calvary with 3 crosses
a soldier pointing his lance
At the one with no name
It's more of the same
A tale of unfulfilled fantasies
Of weakness, so unbecoming
Of deception, so numbing
Of defection, so appalling
I know, it's nothing new
What we have to go through
And that's why I tell myself
There's nothing I'll miss
I am stronger than this
