try
has my heart
bled for too long?

have I coated those I love
in my own blood?

perhaps

perhaps it's just
the order of things?

perhaps
I'm meant to bleed?

maybe my blood
may help others

and maybe
just maybe

I do deserve love
and a caring hand

perhaps
I am worthy

yes
yes I am

I've done
everything I can

I've done good
finally

I've done good.

it's good enough
just to try.
