the world is heavy
resting on my shoulders
and I long for the sweet relief
of its weight
crushing me to dust

I feel bad “liking” this. I love the way you have crafted this little poem, and can totally relate it to. But the feeling of being crushed is horrible, and thus I don’t like it 😦 and instead and sending you a *hug*

Oh dear, I hope instead that you find relief as it lifts up from your shoulders.

I hope that, too, although sometimes I struggle with hope.

But then Atlas shrugged… (I am not an Ayn Rand advocate, FYI) but I like the metaphor. World on your shoulders. No one can bear that burden alone. xoxo

That is why it’s crushing me. But it needs to be crushing me not at all… or completely. This in-between shit is worse than either of those…
