I've got it! I've got it!
It's here within my grasp.
I squeeze too hard; it's gone again
And I can only gasp.
I had it! I had it!
And now it's gone again!
My mind is cold; my heart is stone.
My life once more is grim.
I want it! I need it!
When will I ever learn?
My life's my own but why must I
Choose this way to burn?
I love the abrupt sound of the first pharagraphs wonderfully done,good job.
And thanks for your kind critique.
