The painful poignancy of desire

Stronger

I know the force of habit
That makes each day seem the same
I sensed the sweet temptation
Of lovers without name
I felt the harsh indifference
Shower the coldness of fall rain
I have sensed time and distance
Lay memories to shame
I know the power of hatred
To destroy all the past
And to transform each memory
Into a regretful farce
But I promise you sincerely
In the name of all I love
That our feelings are stronger
Than everything I know.
