Weight of the Broken-hearted Lifted

Down the hall
step by step
gaining the weight
step by step
it grows with each contact to the floor

To our room
step by step
enough to fall
step by step
I regret taking the weight, for I am falling

Up to the window
step by step
enough to break ones heart
step by step
can things get any worse now?

Stop there
indure the weight
lift the forever increasing weight off my shoulders

Turn away
step by step
forget all sorrow
step by step
walk into tomorrow, content the weight is lifting

Continue on
step by step
add a new weight
step by step
the weight of the life worth living and maintaining
