Give Me the Strength To Try

"Wishing you were somehow here again,
Knowing we must say goodbye.
Try to forgive,
Teach me to live,
Give me the strength to try!
No more memories,
No more silent tears,
No more gazing across the wasted years..."

My favorite verse of the entire show.
I'll be the first to admit this was completely inspired by 's latest drawing Why Can't the Past Just Die? [link] Something about her piece just made me jump up and say "I have to draw this now." So I did.

I apologize for the shiny, because of all the heavy pencil work the paper curled a little. Once it flattens out I'll rescan. Actress is Katie Knight Adams.
