Trying Too Hard

Fight every day to keep everything inside,
can’t win this war of my soul.
Trying so hard not to give up control
but everyday it gets a little
harder to keep breathing,
to keep seeing, to keep believing.
Trying so hard not to give up but everything
in me says to let go.
How do you know when it’s the right time
to just let go of everything
and just breath, just be, just sit here and see.
Trying so hard not to cry and then I wonder
why I was even crying,
you never were truly a friend
so why did I miss you so much.
Trying to hard but maybe I should
just take a step back, may be
I should take a deep breath, maybe
I should just wait and see
what happens when you let go.
