Poem For A Friend

I wish I knew the words to say

To make you smile and feel ok

Instead all I can do is sit

And listen while you’re losing it

You’ve been a friend for me so long

And I know you only pretend to be strong

I know you hate it when you cry

But we do not want you to die

I know sometimes in your head

You feel you would be better dead

But, goddamn it isn’t true!

All of us, we need you

You’re one of the only people I trust

Please don’t say you’re not enough

I’m asking you, please blame me

Just blame yourself anymore, please

I know words won’t make it work

And inside you still feel so hurt

But at least heed by begging cry

Please stop wanting to die
