    What Kills Me

     I carry the weight of the world on my shoulders.
    My burdens grow heavier with each step I take.
    I can no longer determine enemy from foe.
    I can't tell who is a snake, lying in wait.
    I walk through mine fields blindfolded,
    stumble through life alive, but not living.
    Tears from my sorrows could form a river.
    I'm surrounded by people,
    yet I am alone.
    My smile, stretched wide, when you look at me.
    You don't see me,
    you only see what my pride will let you see.

    Poetry is finer and more philosophical than history; for poetry expresses the universal, and history only the particular.

    Aristotle (384 BC-322 BC) Greek philosopher.
