Flashback Friday: Why I Try

I don't recall when I wrote this poem, but do recall when it was published, in December 2011. I was even contacted by a Hollywood producer who was touched by it. If you find this page and take it heart, go forth and make a difference.

Why I Try

Do I really want on my deathbed to lie
wondering why I didn't try?

Regretting life I didn't live?

Regretting the strength I didn't give?

Regretting what I didn't share,

wondering why I didn't care?


And so, you see, till the day I die

I'll try and try and try and try.
