In life the problem isn’t the huge catastrophes
It’s the little things

They pick and pull at what makes you weak
They bring more pain than death itself
Because, the little things tell you the truth
About others; About yourself
The truth can save or kill

Can heal or destroy
Make whole or rip to pieces
The little things hurt the most
Because, you can’t run from them
