"Tried So Hard"
  by Unethical


Bone Thugs-N-Harmony - I Tried ft Akon
…………….I tried so hard..

Self – Deemed
Valid Attempt to fill the equivalent of an empty room..
with no college level interior design degree..
Just.. entry level Me.
Painfully
Surveying.. Six Blind spots
Lost Commonly
Sensing… around in the darkness and
..Eventually ..
Scraping..Scratching..
Knees and Palms
On rugged jungle like Terrain..
..Compose?...
..Maintain?..

I.Tried.
Breathing..
Bent..Backwards

I.Tried.
Back bends…
Arches still held
Above super human levels
I tried. So
Hard

To Re-Coupe
Rise and Stand..
Erect..
Reflecting a
Test of Agility..
Double Jointed -Contorting
Strength to Adjustment..

Still I..
Try so..Hard..
Facing empty spaces,

Open eyed dreaming up
an audience of

Just one..
Performance..
One
Chance..Try..Opportunity..Option..
Could be..a Possibility..


I’m..
Just..Simply there
un-stacking chairs in a free form of
open semi-circles ,

Precisely angled at such off centered
Thoughts..

Podium dead set on center stage..
Displayed..
{Spotlight}
Speaking to the walls..
From a Dead Mic..
--Testing..123---

I tried so hard..
Try, Try, Try so hard..

So Morbidly emotionally deceased..
Coffin Steady
Wrapped. Tight and Mummified..
No longer have to fight for ways out
of
What..could have been..Then..
Suddenly..Simplistic..
Anesthetized..

I Tried so hard..
For Effort to be viewed as effortlessly

Reclining back alongside the walls of
stone cold mortuaries..
Just to inhale the escaping heat from
Grim Reapers..

How cold must it be
To absorb…
Fallen tears…From Deaf Ears
Trickling..
So Tricky..

I Try ..
So Hard..
Amazingly enough..
I tried so hard….

Try, Try so Hard..
I tried so hard..
to install big girl handle bars on an age 5 and Up Big Wheel
While pedaling fast on the highway of life..
Up Hills..and
Couldn’t quite..
COAST…
Heading Downhill..

Adult hood
{Smacks}
Just like a Mac
Keep..on ..
Truckin..

Flatly placing..
Everything into perception
For unidentified Perfection..

I tried..So Hard..
To Stop the Beginning..
And to ..Start the end…..

Being Pulled
Back…
Back to..
Attempting to Fill the equivalent of empty rooms
Forming…
Open Circles of unused chairs

Patiently waiting..
Until then..the only words vocalized..

“I Tried, So Hard.”

I found myself pulling for you all the way through... feeling a little exhausted emotionally by the end
