light and light.

I used to think:

Weigh hope and diamonds.
Don't tell me what weighs more,
Tell me what shines brighter.

So, should we catch the light?
Or
Carry
The
Weight?

(But is it really something we carry, when all it does is lift us?)

The heart is heavy by nature.

You're made up of a lot more than you bargained for.
