POEMS BY BUTTERFLY555
Description
Almost Atlas
I wonder what dreams may come
you don't have dreams,
I want to feel the warmth of the sun
Pulsating on my skin as heat
Brushes the coolness
Off my body,
You... get sunburned
I have learned to see light in
the darkest places of one's heart
you could spot shadows
on the ground at around midnight
I have freed myself
from the chains that bind
one's soul to earth,
opended my arms as wide
as i possiable could, in order to seal
that black-hold scar across
your chest
The black hole you created
when you laid all
blame on yourself
I have given you a place to
release every single one
of your pains,aches,and burdens
and
allowed you to evenly distribute
across my back
from shoulder to shoulder
every sting and soreness
that was one yours...
My knees are trembling.
My back is weakening. My bones are cracking.
But most of all
my heart is aching
I'm not sure that i can hold on much longer
But I will...
For I must...
For although the weight of your world
is on my shoulders
Your happiness
lies in
my hands
