RIDDLE: SHOES by ANONYMOUS

First Line: TWO BROTHERS WE ARE / GREAT BURDENS WE BEAR
Last Line: AND EMPTY WHEN WE GO TO REST
Subject(s): RIDDLES;

Two brothers we are,
Great burdens we bear,
On which we are bitterly pressed;
The truth is to say,
We are full all the day,
And empty when we go to rest.
