Just have to step back

Just have to step back

A Poem by Jon Roggie

I know.
You are just looking for a bit of support.
Maybe for yourself,
  a friend,
  a cause.

Nothing wrong with that.

Went through this.
 
Held the hand of a dying man,
  asking to end.
 
Each time the memory returns.
 
Just have to stop,
  take a breath.

Just have to step back.
