Weight

Thoughtful Gay Oddysseys

The weight is a puzzle I have yet to resolve.

The weight of another person's actions against me.

The weight of purple rage as it zaps through my veins.

The weight of burning tears as they gather but cannot fall.

The weight of "I love you, but no."

The weight of living on the same planet as a person who destroys light.

The weight of life, delicate, and in need of cradling.

The weight of staying on good earth but always wanting sky.
