This poem for

This poem for

a girl that

I am friends with.

I try to

hold you but

instead you walk away.

I try to

comfort you after

he died in Iraq.

I try to

help you but

you walk away.

I was trying

to but instead

you push out

the way so

I am going

to walk out.

This poem is

reminder of what

I could have

for you.

I try but

not anymore.
