Too Heavy

Hollow within myself,
I walk upon thin ice convinced it won't crack
But when it does,
consumed will be by my sanity
Learning to accept the acceptance
I've avoided for far too long
I only wished there was a mutual path
But this I take alone
I go down alone, to help those above
I shed not a tear on my own cataclysm
I waste not a breath on faith
And not a drop of blood on pity
I drown silently.
