Heather Lemen Poet I do not know?

I'Ll Pay the Cost

I've tried and tried, but now I am worn,
It's time to stop, and it's time to mourn.
I'm tired of the fears, the tears, the pain,
 Nothing changes when it stays the same.
 Thinking I was right, knowing I waa wrong,
 Became very weak where once I stood strong.
 Just wanting to feel love with daily care,
 ended up taking on too many burdens too bare.
 You see I lose myself when it comes to fear,
 all reason and logicc will somehow disappear.
 Instead my emotion begins to take the lead,
 deceptive illusion tells me I have what I need.
 As time passes , fear actually increases more,
 then I begin to miss what I once had before. 
I had confidence, security and hope within, 
looking to the future, not where I have been. 
Now I want back the qualities I seem to have lost,
 no matter what may be the price, I'll pay the cost.
