Gravity

The weight of the world has kept me down

The gravity of quaking will still resound

How can I give back and dare to let go

When 'try to be strong' is all I know?

It left me upside down and inside out

Shake me around until the nothing falls out

Why do I stick with things that tear me apart?

It's a lonely end so I run back to the start.

Afraid to smile, that sea glass eyes will crack,

Mind made up for the things the heart lacks.

Learn to find joy in sadness for each case

Or forget to be happy just to save face.

Could never prepare for the day that we'd meet

For the warmfront that would come in with your heat

Melted my world and its icy walls

Lagooned frozen caverns exposing its halls

It has been a long winter, though it will freeze again

I melt time again when you call me your friend.

Falling from the high the ground may shake

From old loads carried how far does it take to break?

The weight of the world has kept me down

The gravity of quaking may still resound

How can I give back and dare to let go

When 'try to be strong' is all I know?

I can remember the day that we met

The mem'ry of happiness resounds in my head.

All that becomes is all that we let,

And I hope I never get the chance to forget.
