Poetry: Heavy burdens

This burden is so heavy.

It weighs me down each day,

Till I can no longer rise.

Its a huge weight on my chest;

One I feel I can no longer carry.

I feel as if I can not breath,

The shame I feel of it all.

Though not mine,

I bear the secret all the same.

Ti's shameful I know

But to whom, do I speak?

Who'll carry with me the burden of knowing?

I feel afraid and discouraged and alone.

God what am I to do?

Who am I to turn to?

Who will help me through?

Who Lord?...

Besides you.

    These burdens lay upon me

    They crush my very soul
