Under the weight

Somedays your heart will beat so fast you'll feel as though you are a bomb, ticking, waiting to obliterate anything in its way,

And other days you'll feel as though there is no life left inside your frail body.

You'll feel like you can lift mountains but the next second feel like somebody has taken everything you love from you.

When you think about his name or her face your body will ache and beg you to give it peace.

Your bones will start to creek,

And there will be a slight pinch in your heart,

As your blood continues to course through your veins,

And you'll want to give up, I know you will,

Everybody does once in awhile,

And I don't blame you if you break.
