have you ever felt
the weight of the world?
heavy on your shoulders
bringing you down
no return from the fall
no sunshine after the storm
no light after the dark
just tears running down your face
the street lights are your refuge
and loneliness is your best friend
your cigarette accompanies your letters
your poems
your clothes
bringing you down
rock bottom
and i wish i could see your face right now
that sinister grin
the sad look in your eyes
