Worth It
It may kill me
I don't care
It may blind me
I don't mind
It may cripple me
Doesn't matter much
It may shatter me
That's okay...
Love is worth it
Every scar
Every bleeding
Gaping wound
Every heartache
Every tear
Every pain
Every sadness
Love overshadows
All of them
Even if it's fleeting
Even if it doesn't last
Love is worth it
Every risk
Every chance
I've loved
Loved deeply
Been hurt
Nearly destroyed
But, I'd do it
Again
Tomorrow
Whenever
I won't give in
I won't give up
Love is the one gift
You can't return
Love can make you crazy
It can make you sane
It can heal your heart
It will make you smile
And we've all been hurt
In the past
Years ago
Or yesterday
And love can't make
Old wounds go away
Can't make them dissapear
But, love can make them
Feel better
Can sooth them
Gently
Like a mother
Would a child
Sometimes, love is all we have
