Let me carry your burden
There won't be shunning or judgement
For who am I to cast the first stone
And maybe you can help me carry mine too
Lord knows I have my own problems
Every day was painful
No one noticed
Why won't they notice
Please notice
See past the smile you see with your eyes
Look with discernment
My heart fighting to leave it's ribcage
But no one saw
No one heard
The plea
Days on end
Praying one day someone would notice
We live our life in a daze
Consumed by our own trials
We don't even realize when someone has fallen
Because sometimes a burden gets so heavy
You trip over your own two feet
Hit the floor
And you lay there
You lay there until you find the strength to get back up
But sometimes you don't
Instead you sink deeper into the ground
Like quicksand
The more you think the faster you fall in
You need help
Let me help you carry that burden
As I stretch out my hand to you
Grab on tight
If you need to
Pull me down to your level
Whatever you need
I'm here
My hands
My feet
My ears
My eyes
My voice
All at your disposal
Let me be here for you
Because for a long time
No one was there for me
Let me show you a love
An unconditional love
To which I found strength
That God has showered upon me
With a warm embrace
Similar to a warm bed on a cold morning
One you never want to part from
But even when you part from God
God doesn't part from you
He is with you through all seasons
Winter, spring, summer, fall
Not all seasons are created equally
Sometimes we get a little more rain then we'd like
Or even a few storms down the road
But they all come to an end
There is no such thing as an endless winter
Just you wait and see spring
And don't be sad when it passes
It'll be back in no time
Because time doesn't move back
It only moves forward
So move along with it
And don't linger in the past
Because nothing's waiting for you there
Look ahead
And maybe time will go by faster
If you let me help you carry that burden

A Creative Title for my Poetry
PoetryThese were just some of my poems or short thoughts that I couldn't form into poems just yet. I wanted to share them because I know my experiences aren't original or unique but things everyone experiences. But I was always shy or afraid.
