I Can Handle It

im tired of handling everything, im tired of convincing everyone that im okay and that they can just unload on me. i cannot handle it. i cannot take it anymore. im done with it.

“I can handle it”
That’s all I do
“handle it”
that’s all im made for
eating the words you
make, day in and
day out.
Constantly taking
The brunt of your
Every blow. Never falling
Quite off my feet. Ever handling
The names and the games
You place on my plate because
Its never enough to just be
Happy for awhile . I always have
To balance the scales in my
Libra like nature because if its
Good then god forbid there be
No bad. The scales constantly
In balance as I “handle it”
Every day. Each moment passing like
A century in heaven and hell. A
Bittersweet symphony of sorts
But the instruments are
 out of tune And the conductor has gone
 insane. Can I handle some more for you
Kind sir? Please, allow me to take
That burden like coat off your shoulders and
Wear it for awhile. it fits like a
Glove anyways. Because that’s my job.
That’s all I do
“handle it”
