try harder

by Jada Andrews - Capricorn

I try to swim, I sink
I try to rise, I fall
I try to keep my heart
instead, I risk it all.
I try to fly, I crash
I try to smile, I frown
I try to keep afloat;
it all comes crashing down.
I try to keep, I lose
I try to laugh, I cry.
I try to hold my dreams,
my hope begins to die.
