The hunched back of Notre Dame?

seeing you there
with your hunched back
and the burden of your life
balanced around your shoulder

should it remind me of
the hunched back of Notre Dame?
i shuddered at the thinking

i shuddered at my own fear
of having to see you again
someday

where are they?
they who should be taking the burden from you?
they who should be letting your hunched back to rest?
