Love For Less

Little issues in life will only get bigger in time,
One must except the faults which we all have,
Very few can truly embrace the wrongs to make right,
Everyone else will pretend it doesn't exist,
Little things in life can do more harm than good,
Even a mask of happiness cracks underneath,
So why even try if the heart only lives to break,
Searching for someone is searching for a mistake.
