I tried my best and you gave me the rest

I feel like I’m constantly taking a test

I feel cornered and oppressed

But I tried my best and I’m scared to death


Don’t fly too high or low

Or you’ll end up like Icarus 

Dead, Alone, or Either way just bones


But I give you my best and what you’re doing I detest!

But I will continue to give you my best

Through better or worse even if it hurts

I promise until death do us part I’ll give you my best

Even if I only end up getting the rest


My heart beats for you

Still even in this emotional typhoon

This poem´s for you <3
