One Realization

I have come to the realization that I am not worthy to do much
But relieve other's burdens.
It is a task I hardly mind, save it is my only task.
Heavy weight is always concealed.
I battle constant loneliness.
I am so unhinged that anyone trying to lean on me
Will find us both on the ground.
Worse for wear-
That's all I can do for you.
Everyone gives warnings or pity, and no more.
I yearn for trust and love.
'Suppose I must take what I get.
Each step seems a thousand miles,
And a thousand miles, one.
But I have come to the realization:
This is what my life must be.
