I can’t help you
The words hung thick in the air
As you spoke
Of grief
of loss
Trust was broken
And wounds were not healable
The love of mine were Swords crossed at your heart
Trying to protect you from your demons
But my light could not stand against the darkness
For I have not walked as many miles as you
And the hardships of yours were too great
To have the knowledge and understanding
Just the sympathy and care
To hold you while you cried
For then my heart shattered each time yours cracked
