I Try

This goes from sunset to sunrise

Sunrise to sunset

January till December

I’m always trying to forget

Yet I always remember

The heavens in her eye

Trying to talk

I Sigh

Then surrender

I try not to try

Wiping my cheek dry

I try really hard

To not try

I don’t try

But I’m still trying

Even when I’m trying really really hard

To not do anything

I still have to try

To ensure I don’t ball up in the street and cry

Wishing I could just crumple up and die

To just stay alive

For my sisters sake

I try

All efforts do indeed become seamless in their loving chore

Would the forenoon zephyr waft again through this door

صباح الفل والياسمين
