Just Another Excuse

Been sick with the flu
Then your broken wrist
Are these all excuses
Do those injuries exist

From being too busy
Then a finger infection
Just another excuse
I add to the collection

Then what came next
Abscess on your tooth
Excuse after excuse
Maybe hiding the truth

Always being evasive
That is always a sign
Looking for excuses
Stringing another line

Perhaps now I know
What silence is about
All of your excuses
Are finally running out

I would ask you why
Yet what was the use
All I would ever get
Is just another excuse

reason's for not
sounds like whoever got caught

so to me the excuses that have been read
seems like whoever has made their bed

all seem to be an ordinary excuse
till after i read this fabulous muse


enjoyed
