The weight

This pain I feel is physical
like a heavy weight
sitting on my chest
or like a demon pushing
trying to get out...
I need someone to ease
this awful heaviness
I feel as though my body
is like a bed quickly made
thrown together in
too much haste...
I look at myself in the mirror
and no young eyes look back
for they have seen and felt
...too much pain...
loneliness...sorrow
I feel pressed in at times
...you're gone.
