I never had the upper body strength
norĀ legs like pillars
to bear the weight
of a world the size of ours.
Instead, it crushes me down,
ashes to ashes,
and dust to dust,
in life's moments and hours.
Someone planned a role for me to play,
but it is hard, in every possible way.
Like making bricks without straw,
all of the responsibilities, but none of the powers.
Life, our World, towers
and it is me who cowers.
