It feels like a stone in my heart ♥️ I’m trying to roll it out the way Heavy deep set dead weight gravity I think my heart has hardened? Panic What am I chipping away at to reach it? Dislodge it It won’t move I’m sweating I’m dying trying Screaming inside Behind my ****** facade A veil Nobody sees the struggle inside The laughs and giggles Dancing and wiggles A deterrent There behind the stone I feel the warmth Theres something shiny and bright! I’ve struck gold! There…some relief 😮‍💨 when It lifts a-bit Elation, joy, fulfilment Presence I fit in I’m only wedged in But all too soon I succumb I can’t hold on Fear Icey cold I crumble and let go again - Again - I fall into pain
