Poetry: Heavy burdens

by Jason Konane

Created on: July 29, 2011

I need to rid myself of this burden

That holds itself inside my heart

With unknown intent

And with no real reason for getting there

It needs to be gone.

I need to find my way to rid of it

With this burden I look just like everybody else

I am happy and chipper on the outside

But in my heart

I am falling into this endless abyssal hole

That sucks more and more out of my life

It feeds on my happiness and takes it away from me

With this burden I need somebody to help me

You may not know why I am doing this

But I just need your help to save me from this endless abyss

Save me from living a lie

Help me to be happy

Help me to rid of these abyssal depths

That claims to help me

Help me to rid of this burden.
