I Am Trying

I know there's something great in me,
Something I struggle to find.
The days and months keep passing
As I lie here, stuck in my own mind.

Always looking for ways to improve myself, 
But I struggle to take that first step.
I often wonder if this is it for me
Or if I'm stuck in my regret.

I try to hide my insecurities
Because the worry is just too much,
But they wind up shooting out of me
with every passing touch.

So today I write this poem,
to see what you might say.
Any words of wisdom
Could help my soul someway.

The future of tomorrow seems so far away. Sadness filled my heart the day you walk away. I remember the little games we played with the memories that I have from yesterday. The future of tomorrow remains unseen. It cannot hurt you or me. The past of yesterday can haunt you every single day.
