"Companion" - Written 17/06/08

I've watched your fall,
Standing by your side I've seen it all,

The graceful dive, as you plummet
Heedlessly into this abyss.
It hurts to watch your sickness,
Sadness echoing from your tears.

If I could mend your broken soul,
Then perhaps there is hope for me?

-

Another day, no change, no need to wake,
Loneliness inhaled in every breath,
Lost hopes writhing in your head.

To see your heart anchored,
Hard as stone, cold, and dead,
Endless silence, no beats to skip,
Running from light, hurt and afraid,
Empathy overcomes me, bound to you.

I wish I could heal your pain, this
Sadness - Is this it? Is this all there is?
