day 141

i carried the weight
of your love within me
heart unable to relax or rest,
never coming home to nest,
in time i set you free

the burden of all
you were still remained
i asked the earth if it would reclaim,
but in the months of sun and rain,
it never really changed

then i took all the weight of the love never true
gave it away to become something new,
and finally released all the burden of you.
