Burden

My body
Refuses to carry
The burden of
My heavy heart.
These emotions,
Like anchors,
Nailed to my
Ankles.
Every step
A new pain,
And every word
A new heartbreak.

I try to understand.
Am I
Damned to
Be alone?
Fate frowns
Upon my
Fragile existence.

Nothing more
Than glass
Waiting to be
Smashed.
