'The More I Tried'

'The More I Tried'

A Poem by ‘Thoughts In Time’🌹
"

It's all deep inside 🌹

"
The More I Tried:

The more
I tried
The more

You

Seemed to
Hide

The more
I tried
The more

Tears

I seemed
To cry

Each day
A little
Bit more
I died

The more I tried

Your love
It seemed
To die
Deep inside

Never stopping
To wonder
Why

You
Yourself
Your love
Did hide
In chains
Your

Heart

You tied
And tears
Your heart
It cried

For the
Lies
Of those
On the
Past
Side

A prisoner
To self
Each day
You slowly
Died

Although
I tried
My heart
It cried
For you
To see
The love
So deep
Inside me

Was reaching
For you
In amongst
My hurts
My doubts

My love
Was still
Reaching
Out

Calling for
You

For it is only
The few
That my love
Is due
And true

My heart
Kept
Missing you
And your
Heart
Missed
Mine too

Even though
I tried
It was if my love
Along
With your
Love
Died

Suffocating
To survive
Trying to
Revive

The lost
And cold
Heartbeat
Of old

But you knew
It's only
The few
That can get
Close
To you

Fear was
Near
And surfaced
Within
Every tear

Year after year

Why not
Let it
Go

Your heart
It knows
But the mind
It shows
The incorrect
Path
It must go

For the battle
Between
Heart
And mind
Is of a perculiar
Kind

Accepting
What the
Heart already knows
Takes
Time

But don't banish
Yourself
To the dungeons
Of time

Allow your

Love light
To shine

It's just a matter of
Time
The full circle
Entwines
What set out
In the destiny
On 'mine'

Don't lose what's
Destined
Designed

Turn
The tried
Unto
Revived

The old into
The
New

Find that love
Deep within
You

To you be true
And know
That because
We tried
The love
Never died

The more we try
The less there
Is to hide
Open up
The baracades

Inside

Now
Is the time

To fly

That is the
Reason
To try.

Hello dear Kelly. The less we need. Less we become.
"To you be true
And know
That because
We tried
The love
Never died

The more we try
The less there
Is to hide
Open up
The baracades"
I loved the above lines. It is sad when we forget what we need. We do. The baracades we create are hard to take down. Thank you for sharing the amazing poetry and your thoughts.

You are welcome, dear Kelly.
I really like this, very relatable. I do like the presentation as well as if each line is the thought and feeling and written as such. I too have written this way and it’s effective in the reading of it. Well done
