It's a metaphor. You are not suppose to take the literal meaning. "Love" is being compared to "a heavy burden" as the author's love of his/her beloved is so profound that it feels like a weight he/she cannot bear and is "sinking" under it. Maybe the love is forbidden, it's unrequited love, the beloved is deceased, we cannot know for sure.
