She thought that the bones were the strongest and most rigid part of the body

She thought she could carry all the weight if the world

At first it seemed like a silly illusion

But no one knew of her true delusion

She theorized that she could not only supprt a life of her own but als the lives of many others

She started with one person, one burden

It was a slouch, a bulge in the back

But she knew she could do more

She thought she could do better so she supported the life of another on her back

For her this seemed like a breeze

And she certainly thought she was doing this with ease

But then she added another person and another persona and antoher person

and now she was a hunchback

But she knew she could do it

Even though the pain and weight on her bones was agonizing

But she continued with another person, another person, another person and another person

Until one day

The pain was excrutiating, it was unbearable the girl could hear her bones

sinking

and sinking

and sinking

And she asked herself. “You know, maybe I can still get this weight of my back maybe I can-”

“Crack!”

But it was to late

She couldn’t do the latter

Because she was shattered

With this piece I wanted to capture the lives of people who are willing to put themselves under the bus for others. These people will brush of these burdens they have in their life treating them like it is “no big deal,” but people will take advantage of that and they will rely on you to much and become completely dependent on you. However, these people will not stop they will do whatever it takes to satisfy the “needs” of these people. Not only have they put a variety of people on their back but they knowing or unknowingly disadvantage themselves and eventually. They break. It can be compared to oneself scattering thorns in front of them. They are the the reason for their own disaster and it’s to late now because they can’t clean up the mess they made and they will live with this guilt for the rest of their live’s.
