Lend me your burden for a while
Just sit back breathe smile
Trust me I know the pain
How it can feel so insane
Taking every blow being tough
Feeling like it’s never enough
Constantly searching for strength
Keeping failure at arms length
Shoulders aching from the weight
Frustration makes you contemplate
If you should go or stay
If caring matters anyway
Heart afraid to confess
That you need a caress
Body and mind aching from stress
In a situation that seems pointless
Hardwork dedication don’t matter
Tired of the gossiping chatter
Searching for peace so high
Searching for truth in every lie
Growing up so fast
Those blissful moments rarely last
Who will understand or care
So what’s the point to share
Just like every poem I create
Who will notice or relate
It’s not wrong to feel
Unless it’s all unreal
