If It Is Worth All the Trouble

And there I am trying to figure out

If it is worth all the trouble!


When every morning

You wake up to a new fight

To pick pieces from a broken relationship

And glue each piece and hold them tight

Only to see them break away

To fragments when they go out of sight

By the time you get to sleep

It’s a long dark lonely night


I dream of beautiful times

You, me and everything all right

I remain awake to keep sleep

From forcing into my dreams, my plight

As time creeps along, snatching my moments

Beyond the horizon I see the new day light

I know not why but I have a faint feeling

A feeling of another lost fight


And there I am trying to figure out

If it is worth all the trouble!
