tensions and stressors that can do us in
testing relationships, testing resolve
causing some to give up, to turn and to walk
but I’m not a quitter, can’t walk away
not without fighting for what I believe
I don’t give up, can’t throw in the towel
won’t try to fake it when the going gets tough
I would rather build bridges
fight the current when I must
mend the things that need fixing
make the effort, knock down walls
the challenge has it’s merit
so the battles I will fight
the return is immeasurable
the rewards, worth my time
