Still I try

I started this with a title.  Then tried to write something to go with the title.  So often, more often, the title comes last.  So I changed it.

This is the way
I can title
This portion of my life
This portion of which
I know
No beginning
No end.
Really no label
Is enough.
No title
Captures it,
Even partially.
Sometimes
No
Often
I unearth a label,
Try to live into it
For a time,
Then find words
Are not enough,
Never enough.
I climb to the top
Of the mountain.
I sit in the blue chair.
I go to work out with my beloved
In five minutes.
There are no words
No real words
To describe it.
Still I try.
