I've tried
all the pills
all the people
all the teams and clubs and classes
I've tried the time away from work and home
running
dancing
drinking
I've tried shutting off and out
I've tried opening up and in
I've tried pretend and hope
I've tried eating and not eating
hitting and pushing and shoving and
not
one thing moves me to somewhere else
today I don't try
I'm done
I'm over
I'm alive because my dog is here
I'm alive because I have that kid expecting
to see me
on Friday.
I'm alive because I haven't been killed or murdered or
I'm alive because I'm not dead.
I've tried to be alive
I've tried to not be dead.
