Trying

She's trying so hard
to be happy.
For herself,
for him,
for them..

She's fighting back death,
miserabally.
She's staying strong,
barely.
She's crying,
she's trying,
but she's slowly dying.

She doesn't know,
how much longer she can go.
Her smile is fading,
her hope is wading.
Lips and hands quivering.

Her hope died..
While her eyes cried..
