Pattern To Escape

I let myself fall back to the one I am with
What I tell myself we have is completely a myth

The imminent disappointment every time we kiss
Makes me see there is something truly amiss

How can I from this revolving circle escape
Break free into the life shared with my one true mate

Have I hoped to early or come to late
To find the remnants of what I long to create

Forever in my dreams, locked behind the door
Am I left to wander with regret and nothing more
