*****************************
the ice melts
slowly
dripping away
and no matter
how hard
you tried
to stop yourself
from caring
it didn't work
it never does
not with people
like this
and it seems like
for a minute or two
they could understand
this thing
this weight
that you carry
on your shoulders
some days
in your smile
on others
what would you
call
the burden
i would call mine
sadness
tinged with
love
because if you've
never loved
you have
never felt
pain
