Reaching For a Star

You struggle through out life At times against your own self made strife. Tying to stay afloat in the highest of tide During the craziest part of the ride Keeping your hands on the inside Holding on to any hope Past your end of the rope To at least reach one star You have came so far While you yet live, For all the years you were willing to give and not get burned for having tried. A reason for any tears you may have cried. To achieve a goal after coming this far. Not allow life to leave any remaining scar Sometimes you get burned reaching for your star Sometimes the light It seems to shine so bright. This has to be right. Time as they say, will always tell If you did that well You will always cry always be wondering why If never willing to even try So reach for your star After all, you have already came this far
