stones break as well





This is poetry made out of unshed tears, 
the ones you can't pour out,
when your heart is heavier than its supposed to be.
then there's too much to think about,
like family and friends, 
like how you should be the strong person,
always and always a stone. 
No one would care about one,
while they see you acting all so brave 
but I have pairs and pairs of bags in mind
couples of kilos weighing me so much
where i just stop for a moment 
even when i'm doing something 
terribly important 
i just stop
and feel the urge to slam into the floor
to puke my entire guts out 
from breakfast to midnight snacks
 i just stop 
and blink 
once
twice
thrice
stare at the ceiling with dim light
 looking at ants in a fine line
 i just stop
 and feel the tears as it poison the edge of my eyes
cutting through
hot
painful.
I just stop
and feel the need to rest
to shut down
to cry until i break my ribs
I just stop
and think
and stop thinking
and see how black it is
How suffocating the world really is
how it pulls you to oblivion
and you just stop
in the middle of the darkness and light
in the middle of breaking down and standing up
you stop in the middle
and take all the burden in one gulp.
