Something heavy, anyway.
Tears threaten, and swear words brim on my lips.
And on my fingertips.
This rock is hard.
I want to reach out with my hand and...
...and change something
But there's nothing to change.
This rock is large.
I want to ask "Why?"
...and to whine
...and to pout
This rock is bloody uncomfortable.
I want to start again.
I want to make no mistakes.
I want another go.
I want to get it right
People just shouldn't swallow rocks
