Wishing we could help

I want to help so bad it hurts

I want to say something that will cheer you up and reveal to the world your smile

but you’re broke way past the point of return

My “I’m sorry”s are the best thing I’ve got but will do nothing and have absolutely no effect on you

Your happiness fades every day so easily

It’s so easy to see that in you

I feel as if I am the one causing this 

If something happened to you, the guilt would kill me

Don’t you realize that you have this long list of people watching you from afar, 

all wishing they could help but not knowing how?

People do care, it’s just hard to show it

especially when you’re doing the best you can to block everyone out

Don’t you realize we’re all praying you’ll be okay?
