Burdens (Poem)-WhisperShade

Intro
So uh, yeah I found one of these random poems from a really dark time in my life, and so yeah, here it is:

Hurt is the word.

Just a euphemism to describe

A burden carried

On weary shoulders.

Pain, like a knife,

Stabs every piece of my soul.

Trust becomes nothing more than a word.

An illusion.

Hope is washed away and despondency sets in.

Tearing apart what once was.

Nothing,

Ashes only.
