I tried once,

It didn't work,

I still lost.

I tried once,

To tell you the truth.

I tried.

I tried to warn you,

I tried to keep it,

From hurting you.

I had tried,

You never saw,

That I had tried.

I have lost,

The monster won,

And you left.

I tried.

I begged.

I screamed.

You never knew.

I had tried.

The battle is over.

I have lost you.

I have lost myself.

I tried to win,

I tried to stop it,

But the monster,

Kept going.

I tried.

I tried to make you see,

You never listened.

I tried,

But I lost,

And now you are gone,

Never to return,

I hope you know,

I tried.
