HEAVY HEART

So much laid upon my heart,

Making it harder us being apart,

Finding reasons to make it lighter,

Is this why I'm a writer?

Getting my feeling out on paper,

Trying to make it lighter,

But, it still feels heavy.

Maybe, if I cry it will feel better,

But, It just makes it feel heavier.

I'll try not to think, but I do,

Then I'm back to feeling blue.

Will anything work?

Maybe if I think, "He's a Jerk"!

But, It still feels heavy.

I know I'm strong,

I know I'm tough,

And I can pick it up,

But, how long can I hold it,

before I get tired...

Will you be there to help me pick it back up?

Or will you constantly carry it with you,

so it will never feel heavy again.
