Challenge
Tell me what you think is the hardest thing about life.
Is it heartbreak? Is it pain? Is it technology? Tell me! :) Write in any format.
Golden (the weight of other’s expectations)
I'm not your fucking golden goose
and I will not lay your basket of eggs.
My body cannot be your basket either.
These bones were not built to be a beanstalk,
and I will take no man to the clouds
you cannot climb my body
you will drag us both to the ground.
I can spin no thread to gold
I can barely wind a noose
and if you put anymore weight upon my spine
I'll tie myself to you
sink us like a cinder block
in a river bed lined with gold
ashame no one will find us here,
not so golden after all.
