8 - Could You?

Could you catch my tears,
If I cried everyday.
Could you hug my shaking body,
When I scream for it to stop.
Could you give me a smile,
Even when I'm mad.
Could you warm my heart,
When it feels like stone.
Could you fix me,
Even though there are a thousand pieces missing.
Could you tell me stories,
So my reality disappears.
Could you kiss my lips,
When they're yelling for you to go.
Could you help me,
Help me feel like I'm not alone.
Could you?
Yes.
Yes you could.
But,
The real question,
Would you?
Would you help me,
Would you love me,
Would you try to make me smile again?
Would you?
No.
No you wouldn't.
Just because you could,
Doesn't mean you would.

Hi again. I'm sorry for the long wait. I've been pretty busy. Anyways, I got into major trouble today, so this update will be a little later than I hoped. I will try to update more (yes, I know I say that every time, but one day it might just actually come true).
Thank you for reading! 😊
