Poem #2

"Try as I might"

Try as I might,
I cannot fight.
The will of the winds and the world.

I hope for a day,
when price I shall pay,
and I see truth and reason unfurled.

Yet in passage passed
I wish I could but last,
live to see what happens through this.

Then in such a place,
I find just disgrace,
of spoiled dreams, hope so lost and amiss.

I have only one dream,
from center to seam,
that I am not damned to do bad.

Find love in another,
cherish, not smother.
and yet I wonder if this is so sad?
