Burdens
This little hole carries a burden
The burden called loneliness
But loneliness is not alone after all
Fore it contains the burden of darkness
Darkness isn't alone in the black
It contains the burden of hurt
Yet the hurt isn't working all by itself
Sadness and coldness can't along for the ride
There are many other burdens trapped in this hole
But it would take so long to list them all
They work together to compete with others
Conquering and defeating the brighter ones
Happiness gone, faded into darkness
Turned to sadness, hidden in the blackness
The gift of love quickly shoved away
Replaced with none other than loneliness
The biggest burden that won the battle
The hurt contains the worst kind of pain
A pain I'd never wish on an enemy
It flows through your veins and rules your soul
Making you so miserable, you just want to leave
Leave this world to meet with God
When you return to reality
These burdens have described what's in your heart...
