Burden Quote by Esther Earl
““To Feel The weight of death, the weight of fear, the burden of stress, pain is here. Never to know, never to guess. Never to know, how much the mess Do not show care, do not feel joy, do not have love, life's not a toy and yet we feel, we have, we show, who knows... I do not know. I do not know. (2007) September 9””
