Love Poem: I Try
Line Gauthier Avatar
Written by: Line Gauthier

I Try

my life has lost
its luster and its shine
I try so hard to hide
the hurt I feel inside

all day long I carry on
like the trooper that I am
I strive to make you proud
as best I can

my life has lost
its luster and its shine
I try to carry on
‘cause I got left behind
