Just Try It One More time

13LaurenD

I was sitting in my room last night thinking I was going to end it all,

Because it seems like every time I get up, all that happens is I continue to fall.

I am trying so hard to take a deep breath and to keep moving on,

But lately I have been feeling like all the hope that I once had is gone.

i every time that I fall apart, I get up and I try it one more time,

Because I can't give up now because I have already made up my mind.

That everything I want, I know I can achieve it if I continue to work hard,

But I have to be willing to let my down guard.

It is hard for me to let people in and see the vulnerable side of me,

But I so badly want to break away from the mold and allow myself to be set free.

And every time I feel like quitting, there is something in my mind that is telling me to give it just one more try,

And I am fine during the day, but every night, I fall apart as I sit there and cry.

It takes a lot of strength to wake up the next day as if nothing ever occurred,

And it hits you all of the pain that you have had to endure. 

No matter what, I need to do it and I refuse to quit,

Because I was always able to bounce back every time that I got hit.

And this time it is different, this is the last time that I am starting over,

Because I make my own luck, and I don't need to find a four leaf clover.

I decided to try it just one more time, and this time, I refuse to quit. I know there are a lot of people who want to see me fail, and I can't wait to disappoint them.

    more power to you!
    just remember
    while you're disappointing
    those parasites
    there may be those, who
    you inspire
    by sharing your defiance
    stay strong!
    I for one am a witness
    to your worth

      My comments on the poem "Just try it one more time” by 13LaurenD

      There seems to be despair and despondency in your poem. You must never give up hope. Life is worth living. The night is terrible and gives you dark ideas. But each morning that starts is full of promises. Stay cheerful and remember that your friends are on your side. Be happy ! Soman Ragavan. 17 July, 2023. //

        Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light."
