I Cant Save You

I Cant Save You

A Poem by Rylee David
"

you have to save yourself

"
i cant save you
i can't save you when your kicking and screaming
i can't keep you warm when you refuse my coat
i can't make you see clearly when you keep pouring bleach into your eyes
i can't make you care when you dont
but i can try

I love that movie.
And your welcome! thanks for the feedback =)
What a helpless feeling this is. With all of our ideas and efforts what we try is only as effective as their willingness to receive.
A powerful piece.

Well we're madr for ourselves...a common thing comes in my mind while reading bout self care is...the one who can't love himself/herself let alone loving others...and that's not in selfish way...Well expressed☺
