Benjamin: Four Hundred Tries Later
I chose the word try
Way back when I did this
The very first time
For a very good reason
Life is trying
Living is giving it another go
Whether it be surviving or thriving
It's all about not quitting
More than once
I've turned away from this
So, what could it be
That keeps me coming back
A sad, simple truth
Could be fear
A simple, yet uplifting truth
Could be love
I have said before
Over this odyssey
Of 400 plus tries
That I am loved
That love is the fundamental reason
That all these tries later
Through the very darkest pits
Of all my anxiety and fear
I'm still here
