This Burden

I carry this burden.
It pulls me down,
Pushes me around.
It gets heavier,
Whenever its feels like
Just too much,
It gets even heavier.
It makes moving forward
Nearly impossible.
I get no peace from this burden.
Its locked tightly on me,
Like a dog and its leash.
I feel no freedom,
I’m tied down.
The more I try to pull,
The harder it gets.
I carry this burden,
And it pulls me down
Almost completly to the ground.
