Burdened Sea

I feel it at my door seething

A viper constricting, breathing


These tears fall with shattered vision

Through sapping walls of poison


Helping leads to realism

Which is another's exorcism


Their pain is my burdened sea

Take it out on me


To stay cradling remainder of lives

Ask who will clear the knives


Pulling others through

My soul exhausts light anew


Say it's selfishness, I'll smile

Endurance is perseverance, not vile


Inner battles rage, staining souls

Within eyes of abys, I see strength's coals
