It never meant as much to you
As it always will to me.
I stand and watch you walk away
Tail between your legs.
Too weak
to fight for us,
Too small
to set it straight.
I thought you were a better man
The kind to measure all others.
Now I know
you have no more courage
than the love you have for me.
It hurts to know you are aware
I expected more
I got far less.
You came up short,
Left me
Disappointed,
The word the started it all.
