I wish I could help..

I wish I could help—I want to.

When I see you in pain my heart aches. I feel guilty for nothing, except not being able to help you. I want to be there to help you through it; I want to be there to comfort you. I don’t want to be the cause of the pain; I want to be the one to fix it. You tell me you miss me but I ignore it, then I come when it’s too late.

I wish I could help—I really want to.

I want to be there to comfort you but I have waited too long, ignoring you. When were alone its fine, when were truly happy it’s easy to forget the hard times, and yet, when were together bad things happen; not always, but sometimes.

I wish I could help—I truthfully want to.

I enjoy the quiet, while you like talking about our problems and helping the other person, and yet, now, when you are very sad you don’t feel like talking; only lying and saying that your perfectly fine. I know you’re not, I can see it in your eyes, why won’t you talk to me?

I wish I could help—I really, truthfully want to.
