stay strong

God knows I've tried

to give my all.

 

All I wanted was to

find love, but every

brush with reality

 

turned into a shattered

dream.

 

I ask myself why

do I even try,

 

When I end up

searching for love,

 

I just get myself

hurt every time.

 

I keep wondering why

I even try at all.

 

I remember the pain

Of heartbreak under

My sleeve,

 

a year of turmoil,

that leaves me

wondering

 

If I will find love

at all.

 

There were lessons

I have learned, and

 

God knows I've tried

to give my all.

 

All I can say is:

 

I'm trying my best to

stay strong.
