I wish I knew how to release myself from it
whenever I try, it pulls me back down
making me loose my grip
on the cord that binds it to my heart

^^^^What I know about pain is this: it leaves you once you learn to let go of it yourself. First step is admitting to yourself that you find it hard to say goodbye to someone/ something and then you try to leave it behind you. Easier said than done, I know:)
I wish you well:)

Hugs,

This was a very good poem i liked it and i as well have felt the same

Wow. great symbolism by using a weight. I would've never thought of that. keep up the good work

This was quite intresting the weight seemed to be force but it was never really a metephor to anything just a weight. Would like to see what was the obstruction or true meaning because you could fit almost anything into it just a thought Plot121

This poem is really well written i love it
there's alot of great imagery i can see it playing out in my mind as i read it
wonderful job
