» Poem: This Burden
This Burden
written by whatShouldUsBe
04:16 AM 1/12/05
Standing in this open field
never to feel that way
thinking of how it used to be
god how I've just wasted away
everything is crumbling
when it used to stand tall
everytime I stand I'm stumbling
when I would never fall
a person without a flaw
has now made mistakes
a person with no broken pieces
has now begun to break
this person full of love
has now grown empty and hollow
this person who was always on top
now has fears of tomorrow
we all have burdens every day
some became lite
and float away
but this burden for me remains
inside and out
it will always stay...

since no one else has left a comment I will... That was good, that was way better than these other punks talkin about slitting their wrists!
