Lifting the burden

As the seasons change so do I.

less and less do I feel the need to lie.

one year ago today.

I was letting the stress of life weigh.

Feeling like i needed to make the world happy.

I was left feeling crappy.

But that was my burden to bear.

Never spoke a word about it, only in my prayers.

The day i finally decided to take off the mask.

I found more than plenty were up to the task.

With friends and family in hand.

We took a stand.

 

Now I've regained my focus on my goal.

One day I'll Achieve it, I know this in my soul.
