Kept Trying Poem by Jonathan Celestin

I kept trying to cry
But the tears won’t drop,
I kept trying to die,
But my life won’t stop.

I kept trying to trust
But it only gets worst,
I kept trying to dream
But it only went to the extreme.

I kept trying to be the one,
But it always seems that I can’t be,
I kept trying to find myself,
But I keep losing it.

I kept trying to hate you,
But it seems like that’s the hardest thing to do,
Vise versa, when I tried to love you,
I realized that’s what I’m best at.
