Rest

I feel heavy

I feel low

I feel crushed

I feel cracked

I feel overwhelmed

I feel sorrow

The weight feels too much

The pressure too hard

The force too strong

For now I’ll close my eyes

To hope it passes by

That tomorrow will be better

But I know that it has to be me

Me who fixes this mess

For now I just need to rest
