Burden

I am a burden
To you and to me
My limits too many
Strengths too few

I try not to take
I try only to give
I take more than you can bear
I give what you don't want from me

My words just hurt your ears
You don't to hear
Don't want to know
Though I listen and share your worries

Time after time
I wonder
How much more can I take?

What else will I have to bear?

What is left of me?

All I have to give are burdens

To you and to me
