trying

trying harder, pulling your socks up, having another shot,
striiiiiiiiving,
struggling, knuckling down, exerting yourself, working at it, joining in, doing more,

or not...but how?

maybe resting, maybe expecting less, maybe taking time, maybe play, maybe feeling useless, maybe loving,
maybe loving some more,
giving, maybe being silent, maybe waiting to speak, maybe never speaking,
maybe being misunderstood,
but maybe unfair on those who are trying differently...

costly. humbling. maybe wrong, maybe very wrong. trying and maybe - can they meet?

trying. to even maybe-be-me. a me that's Him.
