heaviness
Lead in pockets
Heaviness is the quality of weighing a lot or feeling weighty.
Physical heaviness makes things difficult to lift: the heaviness of the stone.
The word extends to sensations of burden or oppression: a heaviness in her chest, the heaviness of grief.
Heavy eyelids suggest fatigue; heavy hearts suggest sorrow.
Heaviness can also describe density or thickness: the heaviness of the fog.
