"Attempt To Try"

Stop...

For one moment...

Think...

Wait...

Realize...

Evaluate and understand...

You are not the sum of everything that has been broken

But the only thing gained by your continued actions

Is the guarantee of the loss of those who believe in you unconditionally...

Each step of living can be an adventure

Filled to the brim with life

The twist and turns can be sharp and severe

Paired with the ultimate highs and the deepest of lows

We learn the lessons of experience

There should always be the attempt to try

A balance between it all...

It's the give and take within existence

Choices and decisions...

Will you make it for yourself?

Or wait for it to make you...

How much do you wish to surrender?

Let go of the heaviness, especially when it is not your weight to bare

Release the wrong assumptions made from others

Listen to the voice calling your name from within

Be at peace with the pieces that remain

Because we are not our past...

Nor are we the same being as yesterday

Change is motion forward always

Open your eyes to a new direction

Let your embrace be survival held

A little hope can lead to conviction found

Let the darkness end with the night...

But please...

Remember the light.
