The Poetic Diary of My Mind

I keep on trying, To myself, I am not lying, So that one day, I will be flying, and not crying, Because I would rather be flying, than crying, And to myself, I am not denying, The fact that I keep on applying, So that the one day will come, When I am flying, And that is why I keep on trying.
