Sometimes I feel
I have gone as far
As I can possible go
One step more
Is one more than
I Feel I can take

The author's comments:
I wrote this because life has been really hard lately. And it can be hard to overcome that sometimes, and realize you just gotta stay strong through it all.

Thank you!! I was happy with how I got exactly what I meant across like this, because it is exactly how I felt.
