This Is Me Trying

I don't want to give up
And give in to the doubts
I want to give this a try
And let us work this out

But from you pen
You've called an end
To what could've been
And allowed yourself to be swallowed in misery that won't mend

And so I'm forced to ask a question
These thoughts I'm expressing
The words are so true they're almost symbolic
And I'm saying what we've both been neglecting

What if two hearts could learn to beat again
And two scars could heal together
Would you care to take the chance
And try to make two lives better

In this ever changing world
Could two souls so long ago lost
Overcome the obstacles and try
No mater what the cost

If we don't take this leap of faith
We're going to be left wondering
What could've happened
If we hadn't given up on everything

This is me trying
I told you it wouldn't be very smooth
If you wanted me
To make the first move
