Sickness of the heart

Am I supposed to sit back and watch

when you suffer and hurt

from the illness I inflicted

on your kind precious soul?



You expect me not to worry,

Oh, how easy it would be

(It's not going to happen

when you mean to much to me...)



You say it's okay

but I can feel the pain.

You accept that it's happened

and try to be strong,

but you helped me through it

and now you're alone.



I feel useless

I feel cold

I feel as though I need to do something

even though you're so far away

to take the pain

to ease the ache

so you can be well again.



Allow me my depression

and I'll allow you your rest

because I know that no matter what I do

I can't cure you of something

that takes a long hug and a kiss;

but I can give you my love...
