Hearts beat
To the weight of a drum
With a steady beat
Against our palms
You're all I see
In the light of the day
Our pulse thumping
All in one

Why are my burdens so heavy?
I packed my bags light
But so many people thought
I needed this or that
And they threw in more
And some of their own, but
Life itself is mostly responsible,
I suppose,
For, most of my bags
Are nothing more than
Consequences of
Situation
Bad luck
Maybe I just need to get stronger...
Jennifer West Mar 2019
There is a weight on your soul
Only just held up by your tired bones

Your sagging shoulders falling with pain
Whilst your eyes are lost in a world away

Struggling to hold the world with your feet
There is no rest for those who can't let it be

day 2

I often watch the world tick by
as I scream from within my mind.
Buried underneath the weight of the world
is the shell of who I once was

Hearts break in the middle
bleeding extends
over the war
that rages on
in
the
BATTLE
OF
NEUTRAL GROUND
where
souls
collect
dross
or
light
into
infinity
Heaven
or
Hell

to feel everything
life, love, loss
the weight of the world
the intensity of existence
I tremble

am I strong enough
pondering question
to bare emotion
scars unhidden
I weep openly

unashamed
life lived without rules
by my own wits
I love fiercely
giving everything

it is enough
eyes open wide
have I seen too much
tears for those in pain
muscles strain to uphold

I am infinite
the cosmos beckons
those who care
who's hearts bleed
we are the mighty ones...
Every year,
My friends decrease.
Every year,
Some friends leave.
Every year,
I think no one will stay by my side as years go by.
Every year,
I wonder why my friends decrease while my weight doesn't.
It hurts alreadyyy. Btw sorry it's been so long since I updated

drip... drip ..drip
feel the cold water
hit your empty stomach
just take little sips
stomach growls lull me to sleep
i don't like a full stomach
i don't care that it makes me weak
i don't see a cookie
i see 120 calories
22.8 g carbs, 14.4 g sugar
this is my daily life I'm not a rookie
water has zero grams
of sugar,carbs and calories
so I drink water
i have water for dinner
and for a snack
i avoid the scale
i don't weight myself anymore
cause it makes me feel more like
a beached whale
i don't eat breakfast
i eat one meal at 3pm
some people notice so
i just lie and say I'm fasting...

It's not that your weak
I'll carry that weight for you
You've been strong too long
Little tribute to an old friend of mine, also cowboy bebop
