I Tried – Part 2

I hurt and I don’t know why
Everything in my life is fine
I give all of me and all my love
I know I am so very loved
And yet at night when dreams come
I scream and cry and cry and cry
Into mornings that turn to days
That turn to weeks and into months
Of despair, despite how content I am
Despite my genuine happiness
What a wasted endeavour
For all those who cared and invested in me
I’m sorry I wasn’t stronger
I tried my damnest to be.
