Hurt
Anything not worth fighting for is not worth anything
Relationships can be hard. Marriages are even harder. I'm speaking from experience.
Quitting or leaving often looks like an attractive option when things aren't going right. Sticking it out can seem like the absolute worst choice sometimes. But it doesn't have to be that way.
I believe there's truth and wisdom in the old expression that anything not worth fighting for is not worth anything.
HURT
I know that things haven't gone your way
You've been facing disappointments and failed dreams
It often seems like they always come knocking on your door
And lately you've been feeling like you just want to run away
After years of marriage it's finally our turn
Hardship and resentment have found us today
Where every moment feels like it's a struggle
But I won't let all that we've built together burn
No it's not okay
For you to turn away
I won't let the end come
I'll pick you up when you fall
I'm in this for the long haul
I'll forgive you for raising your voice
And you can try to push me away
But I know that it's the pain that's talking
Our happiness together is our choice
Together we can beat these blues
I know you didn't mean the things you said
I'll stick with you until my very last breath
My love is yours to choose
No it's not okay
For you to turn away
I won't let the end come
I'll pick you up when you fall
I'm in this for the long haul

I totally agree with these sentiments.
Well said.
NEVER GIVE UP...especially, if you're the one who screwed up.
Thank you for reading and commenting. Much appreciated indeed. There's far too many broken people and broken relationships in the world, I agree.
Right on, bro. Good luck!
Peace.
I really love the poem @freeinthought thank you so much for sharing this with us. Looking forward for more poems =)
Thank you. :)
Absolutely beautiful @freeinthought and so very true. Today is such a throw away society not only in relationships but vertually everything. When I see an elderly couple sitting on a bench still holding hands and I ask them what is their secrets they always say they stood together during hard times and enjoyed each other during good times. But there is both in a marriage (relationship) and you can't give up just because it is the easy way. Thanks again.
Thank you for the wonderful comment. It's great to hear from you again. :)
