Burdens
I feel the burdens of a whole generation
Flashes of greatness twinkle off in the
Distant light.
Pain so deep I wonder if there is happiness
I could ever gain.
In my mind elaborating on expectations that
Seem so ever farther away.
My hearts pumps desolate tears of blood.
The sadness flowing through my veins.
Spirit soaked in burdens like a bad storm
That just want end.
Burdens....Burdens......Burdens.....
