You're not a mule
why did it take me so long
to realize there’s only so many burdens a person can carry
I apologize
I made you my mule
thinking you could carry the weight
when in reality, you are a human
only born with two hands
but where do I find the balance
God, you said you can take it all
but why do I feel so weighted
i’m sinking with a ball and chain
don’t let me drown
patience
but i can only hold my breath so long
black out
I can’t do any thing
unconscious
my time is trickling
breathless
numb to reality
savior
that’s what i need you to be
trust
the only thing to resurrect me
