Strength

22 6 1
                                    

I've carried a boulder,

It's weighed me down.

I've got bruises on my shoulders,

And blood on my crown.

My hands are cut and shaking,

My knees trembling with fear.

I feel my body breaking,

And I sneak a single tear.

Author's Note:

I was searching through an old folder of poems I wrote about a year ago. This is one of them, representing how even if someone looks alright, they could be facing the greatest physical or emotional trials. So just a little poem for remembrance sake, enjoy.
