You Try

Have you ever felt hopeful, felt like a real fighter, being optimistic, believing that you'll eventually get your dreams but after all the hardships... you started to feel the other way around? I have felt that and still feeling that so I have written a poem that would reflect my emotions and how I try to hold and keep believing. Hope this helps. You tried to lift a foot, took one step then another You tried to take actions, walking seems to be forever. You tried to rest, took one deep breath You tried to sleep then felt drowning to death. You tried to stand, you fought one more round You tried to fly but you just hit the ground. You tried to stop, paused for thinking You tried to understand yet fathomed nothing. Now, try to lift your hands, whisper a prayer Try to make actions, keep your faith stronger. You try to keep your eyes open, be a believer You try to trust and you'll get there

@trivia79 Not really. I don't write poems whenever bored but whenever it feels like it's the perfect moment to create one. Through search engine.
