I Try So Hard

Have a Friend with a autistic child and I've had some exposure to autistc kids. Figured I wouldn't mind tryng to be just one more person to make it somehow understood.

 

                                  "I Try So Hard"

 

I try So Hard, to see Possibilties, past the obvious.

I try So Hard,  to keep the Love, always ahead of

the Sorrows.

I try So Hard, to see the Growth, well beyond

the Doubts.

I try So Hard, to stay Strong for them, even when I see

the Weakness.

I try So Hard, to see the Joy, even when I know,

the Sadness.

I try So Hard, grasping the Given when I know,

the Loss.

I try So Hard,

Oh, I try So Hard.....

When All I need to do, is to Always try So Hard, to show,

what I Feel for Them the most,

The Love.

Because the Love makes them go past what They are,

and makes them go to where They need to be.

 

Subject: Autism

Conclusion: It would make even the Best Parent, oh So Much Stronger!

 

For Lisa.

This is a fact that the love can make things happen. It can reach unreachable places and teach more then a world of teachers. The words are like an anthem of love and hope. Bravo.

A great poem and for a good purpose as well. I like how you centered it around the phrae I try so hard without making it seem excessive.
