Pain

I worry, knowing I can't

stop these tears running

down the faces of the ones

I love.

To know I can't do anything

to make the pain subside or

erase passed time.

wrenching and aching pain

going through their bodies,

seeing them hurt.

Only to stand there and

lend a shoulder, a few

mournful sorrows. What else

is there to do, but stand

there and feel like a fool.
