Give Up

Trying is what made the task harder
You try to make others happy
You try to hold back your tears
You even try to fix yourself 
Piece by piece you realize you are still the mess you have tried to push way since you were in middle school
You wonder why people tell you not to give up since every time you try everything crumbles
Thoughts get worse
You lose friends
You lose memories
And most importantly you lose yourself
