4 Toiling Depths

@@

Deep

too deep

wish to leap

on out, I keep

trying, but I weep

'cause I can't make this leap

this trench of mine is too deep

I start to think "why try", though, "keep

on trying" my heart says, so I weep

for I feel that my hearts words are too cheap

and my mind says "this trench is horribly deep

so don't even try," though even with this I leap

for I do not wish to remain in this trench so deep

and though my mind says "it's pointless" my heart tells me to keep

on trying, for it is possible to get out by a leap
