NoiseArt Collective - Fortitude

There's no mirror
In my bathroom
Just an old newspaper
Where the mirror should be
And every day
I look at the news
From weeks ago
It's like a step into the past

And amid the faces
The sports results
The upcoming events that have passed by weeks
There's a puzzle

This puzzle is nine letters
Scrambled
A d at the centre
And it spells
Fortitude

Every day
I stare at the word
It means strength
Endurance
And I wonder if
I'll have some today

Will have some
To get me through
What I need to face?
The daily race
The chaos
Uncertainty
Not knowing
If I can meet what's in front of me
Will I have the strength?
Will I lean on you?

Where will I find
My fortitude?

Each day I stare
At the letters
Fortitude
