I wish that I were able
to take the weight of the world
that is resting on her shoulders
off, and to put it on the top
of my own. I may not be strong,
but right now, my body
is able to handle more
than hers ever could.
I don’t want her to feel
alone anymore, or for her
to feel that everything is
working against her.
I am here, and I promise
that I’m not going anywhere.
Keep silent, my love,
because there is no use
in making matters worse
by thinking that words will
be able to do the justice.
This is bigger than the
both of us. But I won’t let
the darkness swallow you whole.
