Little Troubles Poem by Gerry Legister

We disagree and everything goes black,
when I am down and cannot get back,
it feels like I have lost virtue deep inside,
which may go wandering beyond the outside.
When my pride is hurt it beats in my heart,
the attack of rejection trying to pull us apart,
with some dejected feelings of emotion,
we are both worse off than when we began.
We have entered the realm of another reality,
little troubles look big but they are really silly.
No matter how hard we may fall down the hill,
we can climb back on our feet and do well.
And if it makes us feel better about ourselves,
then we can defeat all these little troubles.
And don't take the cares of this life as a curse;
try to make the most when things seem worse.
It takes time and courage to be strong,
to go along we earn the prize to get along.
Our heart may be breaking with sorrow inside
but there is a smile of joy we cannot hide.

The reality of it goes silent back in with a grin
although secretly our hearts are breaking.
We can keep warm by love and desire.
Some laughs we have are taking us higher.
