hunker down

I can’t fix
all the problems
I can’t make everybody
happy
I can’t
would like to
heck ya
but
can’t
there are just some things
that are meant however much
we don’t like it
to
play they’re course
to the bitter end
some
are the result of choices
we’ve made
some
have altogether everything to do
with
circumstances that we would rather not have had
happen
but
we must bear through
regardless
of how we wish
fate had turned the other cheek
what we got
is what we got
and maybe it’s not
for want
of easiness in life
for want
of smooth sailing
for want
of 365 24/7 happiness
my way
how I see fit
and I’m thinking the best that we can do
the best
is
to hunker down
and plow right through
when the clouds come in
and the thunder rolls
play out your hand
and wait for
the new deal
one thing I've noticed so far
in my tiny allotment of time
is
this day
today
is a new adventure
and whatever may become of it
smile or cry
happy or sad
win or lose
it’s
my call
just wish I could
wish I might
fix all the problems
