I lift weights.
To look good,
To feel well.
I lift weights.
To be strong,
To carry on.
I lift weights.
To put down,
To feel light.
I lift weights.
Am I strong?
Am I light?
I lift weights.
With empty hands,
With empty heart.
I lift weights.
Each year’s day,
Each day’s hour.
I lift weights.
Of my losses,
Of my dreams.
Emotional weights, heavier than what’s in a gym. ☹️
