The heart in this body
bearing children
bearing scars
bearing pain
bearing bad news
Today I’ve borne about all I can stand.
One thing pulls at my heart
while another pushes on my chest.
Bear with me, it’s all
more than I can bear right now.

Wonderful piece
The “Bear” truth
We’re hearing you, and supporting you. Some of us have been there and feel that it’s worth the struggle to come out the other side.
And not only that–you wrote a good poem. :*)
Why thank you!
