The heaviest load

What about when we do say "I give up?"
We always say "I'll never give up!"
But what about when we need a rest?
We can't go on forever.
We're not machines.
Sometimes we just need a break.
Let someone else carry this load,
I'm not ready for it yet.
I am SO tired of hearing the same message over
and over
and
over:
Never give up!
We won't give up!
But what about when we're tired?
What about when we do give up?

    wait, what?

    Y-you really do like me?

    yes.
    thank you.

    i'm sorry too.

    but i love you.

    why aren't you talking to me?!
    i could scream 
    i just miss you

    i do want you in my life!
    i love you
    i just 
    can't 
    hold all this up on my own.
    if you don't want to help me carry this,
