I'm the one they call
when their world falls apart,
the quiet hands that catch
their breaking hearts.

I hold their weight,
carry their pain,
but when mine rises,
I drown in the rain.

I'm there in the night,
no questions asked,
but when I'm lost,
no one looks back.

I keep giving,
and they keep taking,
but when I need saving
I'm the one who's breaking.
