BURDEN

I look within

Trying to see

Just who I am, and who I've become

I reach into my heart

Grasping handfuls of emptiness

Holes you've created

with your lies and untrust

Your insecurity sickens me

Miserable inside, you rob others of their joy

to fill your soul

Your lacking of reality is a burden

I carry upon my weighted shoulders

that cannot be lifted

I feel oppressed

Held down

By my own fear of leaving you
