The Attempt
Let me attempt to tell You
My ailing heart beats feebly
I had forgotten to choose
To Love honestly and deeply
Let me let go of this pounding
My broken fists tremble weakly
I had not bothered resounding
The Love I claimed meekly
Let me rest myself at Your feet
My shattered bones crumble completely
I had not comprehended my greed
The love I dolled cheaply
Let me bare my weary spirit
My weighted mind thinks meanly
I had but to call it quits
To Love again serenely
