Trying Too Hard. Poem by Dylon Cain

You fight a lot and tear each other down.
And every day she treats you like a clown.
So you cry inside, never showing.
For she doesn't deserve the satisfaction of knowing.
How she hurts you deep down inside;
Constantly making you wish you could hide.
But open your eyes and see her pain too.
Open them, it's the least you can do.
For she's hurting every day.
Never knowing what to say.
She's trying to hold on, just a little to tight.
That's the reason for every fight.
For you can't suffocate love with rules and regulations.
Hence the reasons, for the separation, of the nations.
So just let up, and learn to relax.
And to each other, and your love, don't turn your backs.
