Overload

This is what happens when you decide to take on too much responsibility to a point where you physically and mentally cannot handle it anymore. A dear friend (indirectly) inspired me to write this because he guided me into the right direction at the exact time I needed him to. This one is called "overload" to signify the toppling responsibilities I took on during my final semester at school:



A mighty reach of a hand is sometimes just what someone needs...
When in the midst of sitting on the edge of a cliff
Lost
Stuck
Uncertain…

Love?
The commonality of life's necessitates
More important than silly materialistic items
But people tend to misunderstand…
They choose one, take them with, and shut the door on the rest
Senselessly…

You want to help solve the unsolvable
Work towards the unattainable
Fighting adversity until the day you die!

Sounds simple causing sorrowful bliss
Worry is created
Tears are shed into a half full glass
Satisfaction is what you yearn

Strike the sad seamlessly
But the tower has been built too high
Lacking support
It topples over…
She tried to build a skyscraper alone

Alone? Why?
Trying to enjoy the building, accomplishing the large
She wants to prove herself worthy
Wanting to push failure away
She relentlessly tries
And cries
And fries
Desperately she tries to thrive
Belonging what she wants
A burnout is what she gets
Failure is inevitable...
Crippled she is...

Lessons learned
Overload alleviated
A hand was extended
Honesty was poured out publicly
Enduring
He actively listens
She takes the hand and flies towards the small rainbow...
The one that progressively grows as goals are attained

Adversity fought
Problem conquered
Mission accomplished

With a great thanking, she soon glides blissfully…
Experiences stored in the heart as it smiles...
Overload long gone!
