Weighted Rock

I am rock Kneeling at the mountain of life Surrounded by the grains of shattered dreams Awashed by a sea of tears I look towards the precipice Piercing the heavens above me Overwhelmed with emotions I reach out for a helping hand But none know of this journey The steps that got me here Not until my pain cries out It’s crimson tears of peace The silence gives a warm embrace My thoughts are finally clear A Cheshire cat grin beams out My shoulders are free of weight
