There are strings,

I am holding them.

They are not ordinary,

They are indeed different.


Not in real life,

But in ourselves.

Other people can't see,

Only I can see.


The strings,

Are strings of life.

They are the reasons,

I want to live.

 The number of strings,

Won't always stay the same.

They will increase,

And even decrease.


They increase,

As I grab hold of it.

They decrease,

If I let go of it.


If I am lucky,

They will appear.

but when I'm unlucky,

They will break.


I used to have many,

But now there is barely any.

Many of them break,

While some I let go.


It's hard to find,

The "one".

Those won't break,

I can't let go.


One by one,

The strings decrease.

I am losing the will,

To live on life.
