Nothing New

Is it always supposed to hurt? No matter how many times It’s nothing new Just serving a purpose Taking care of obligations It’s nothing new So much change So much never expected So much of something, but nothing new Took longer for the focus to clear Took longer for the shine to dull A thought of something, shattered to nothing Give and take, more give less take A helping hand, a cutting jab It’s nothing new The more is sacrificed The more isn’t enough It’s nothing new Something gained Everything lost It’s nothing new
