Burdened Poem by David Bodnar

And now i bow my head
The burden is to heavy
The lies i must carry
My soul is so tired

I made a promise
That i must never forget
I don't understand
I think I'm learning who i am

I don't understand you
I thought i had been a friend to you
I valued who you where
I valued our friendship more

Than my loneliness
And now both are at risk
And now i bow my head
Everything i tried to push away

Falls down on me once more
I look ahead only to see pain
I look behind to see lies that hurt me
I look around but i cant trust my friends

I look at my family and see a mess
So instead i will look at my Jesus
As all i can't change caves in
Drowning me, pulling me into the darkness
For so long i have refused
