Why Fight

Used to Fear the night Hardest time of my fight When you feel so much Sometimes you loose touch Little things get bigger Silly things that trigger Your thoughts you fight Nothing seems right Getting up so tired Maybe just need rewired Darkness even in the light On you fight This is not right Fighting them demons wears you out inside Hard to hide Couldn't take No more Picking myself off the floor Decided why fight Each night I embraced my pain , my crazy , held it close Was what I chose Accepted Not rejected Gave up the fight That's right Accepted held it close Then let it go Didn't know Without this fight Each night Freed me From the used to be You just have to understand Here's a hand Don't fight See the light So much energy you save Won't lead you to an early grave Embrace your pain then let it go The difference will start to show Just by going with the flow

Hello William Harris, Fighting with your wife or husband does not get you anywhere. It is best to talk it out. No yelling. talk it out before bed. if not resolved then talk in the morning. Enjoy your day my friend. /Darlene\
