Trying

Trying

Trying to preserve my blessings
No second guessing
Trying to be better than me
Not he or she

Trying to be transparent
Trying to be sweet
Trying to be absolute
Trying to be complete

Trying to climb the levels of life
I was afraid of
Trying to avoid all the strife
Bullshit is made of

Trying to complete my journey
Finish my missions
Trying to live the rest of my days
With no revisions.
