PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I’ve become hunchbacked

Due to the burden on my shoulders and over-loading work 

It rains stress and anxiety 

and all that is does to me is bend me more 

It never stopped 

For four years straight 

I decided to crawl 

Then be bent against my will 

Every time my limbs touch the ground 

I get closer to hell 

And beg for the end 

The cycle goes on and on 

Of my future, family and society 

asking me to make stone antigravity 

So they can buff their chest with vanity 

This is nothing but insanity 

They live in their fantasies 

That they forget what’s reality

I am human with limits 

I was not born with super powers 

And surely not fearless

But through this all 

I learned love and forgiveness

How to get rid of the evil and malicious 

Of this unholy universe

Every time I defy gravity 

The rain turns into a storm

And it hits me like the largest tsunami 

I said I’m done a million times

But life tells me it’s a crime 

but the real crime is not giving me a chance 

To stand on my feet and not crawl on ground 

To all the powers on earth 

Make it stop

I can’t handle all the pressure 

I need to know what it’s all worth 

Worth me with a degree with no job?

Worth my family what I’ve achieved or done?

Worth society and the world against me?

This stress 

This stress is just too much 

To act with sanity and normality 

I’ve become hunchbacked

Due to the burden on my shoulders and over-loading work 

It rains stress and anxiety 

And going to be the death of me
