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

I absolutely love this. The loss of strength then gain once more makes it fascinating and lovely to me. It truly is phenomenal how the feelings that coursed through my body when I read this changed with each line. You did a marvelous job.
