I Try

I Try

A Poem by Amanda Worthington

I feel the eyes
of those who look to me
with admiration
adoration
affection
appreciation.

And I am trying.
I am fighting.
I am winning.
but also losing.

I try,
But I am broken.
I am scared
of failing them.

ur Welcome
The vulnerability of the mask being pulled away can scare anybody. Being yourself is the best thing you can do. You owe them nothing and shouldn't feel like you do.

About
Why do I write? Because I want my opinions and my thoughts to be known. I want to make other people feel what I do. I love it when it's just me and my characters, late at night with no one to interrup.. more..
