Little bit of Trying.

Try a little bit harder,

reach a little further,

trying is the recipe to success,

It’s the only way for you to reach your best.

So why have we become lazy?

Why do we always take the road that’s easy?

That is my question,

can you afford the answer?

I can't speak for anybody else, but in some matters I've stopped trying because my best was never good enough. I stopped trying to help people. I stopped trying to let people in. I stopped trying to be what everybody else wanted. And I've let down a lot of people along the way.

I like this, its short and to the point. taking the easy road is what a lot of people do, its what happens, but im not sure why. in my case i might have taken it just because i was tired of everything else, cant reAlly explain it. Either way, great poem

[Sarah W. French]

I like the honesty of this poem especially the last two lines. good job!

Taking the easy way out. Yeah, we all, as human beings, tend to do that from time to time. Making mistakes is what gives us a portion of our humanity. Whether or not we learn from them, well, that's what makes us who we are as adults. I enjoyed the thought provoking message you get across in this. Makes us all think...

one of the flaws of human nature is taking shortcuts. These few lines have left me with a question. Really well written.
