A world tied
CC BY-NCThe world is heavy
Yet no one told me to carry it
I hold on with ropes tied to me
I hold on because no matter how tired I was
I was not ready to accept that my dreams lied to me
Because a world comprise more than just what it has
mountains that's yet to be climbed and skies that are meant to be soared
my world is not coming down
To limits and faults I woke my eyes too
