Must Try
Breathing in, no breath is felt
Blackness engulfed again I wept
Struggle forth the effort unwanted
I cry, I cry, I cry
Must die, must die, must die
Waves crash against body, pain
Rock Rain forcing head to bow
Smashing hard against the ground
I cry, I cry, I cry
Must die, must die, must die
But love too profound for those around
Reaching up for the clouds
Try to touch the condensation
Can’t die, can’t die, can’t die
Won’t cry, won’t cry, won’t cry
In love for him for her for them
Selfish thinking set asunder
Open curtains let in light
Shall try, shall try, shall try
Won’t die, won’t die, won’t die
