Fixable

Some things are fixable;
Others are not.
If it’s the first,
Give it all that you’ve got.

If it’s the latter,
It’s better to ditch it.
Purchase a new one
And then you can switch it. 

Certain relationships 
Might be the same.
Some can’t be fixed
Even if you are game.

There’s only so much,
When things break, you can do.
Then it’s time to give up
And move on to the new.
