Is It Worth It?

You don’t complain about no light to the darkness

You don’t complain about cracks to broken pieces

You don’t complain about disease to the virus

Sometimes you have to really understand

Whether the words spoken from your mouth

Are they worth anything?

Do they carry some weight?

Or are your words just useless

Are you facing a brick wall?

In the hopes of making cracks on it

You are wasting your time and your energy

Your breaths and your voice

Spending most of your time

On problems that can’t be solved

Is an endless journey

With chances of getting lost

And no solution

It is like losing yourself

Without gaining anything

Before starting anything

Before passing by the fire

You have to ask

Will I gain something from passing by it?

Or will I only get burned?

Will I survive? Or will I burn?

Is this worth it?

Or should I choose a different path?

Which feels safer.

Which offers comfort

And which feels like home

Where the fire gives warmth and protection

Instead of fear and anxiety

Making effort on things that are worth while

Is a wonderful thing

As long as they don’t lose their spark

And your efforts become meaningless
