Trying only gets us so far.
Trying to live doesn't stop us from dying.
Trying to love doesn't mean that there isn't hate.

I finally understand that when you love someone that there are things about them that you don't.

I try so hard to not let you down.
I try to make things at least a miniscule amount easier.

That doesn't mean I don't fall short.
I'm trying though.

I don't want to lose you.
I don't want to miss this.
I don't want your sweet love to sour into hate.
