the best is never good enough

there's nothing worse than seeing people get worse when they say they're fine, no matter how much you try to save them. You're left helpless, but you know you're not the one that needs saving, it's them. You've tried everything you can, but all you can see is everything continue to fall apart. They say they're here to help you, but you have to be there for them, but you're nowhere near powerful enough. You remind me of who I used be. Sometimes it's not clear how much I care, but I would truly do anything until my last bone broke and my last muscle snapped, anything just to save you, yet you would never believe me. I'm here, both arms out and ready to save you, yet you chose to walk away, and lie that everything is okay. If only you knew how much I truly love you. If you think I don't care, or if I never pay attention, then trust me when I say I notice everything, and for a good enough reason too. Please stay. I wish you did- I wish you stayed. Someone to hug, someone to talk to, someone to cherish, someone to strum a guitar with, someone to drink with, to dance with, to go to pride with. I wish you were here, and not just in my heart or in thought. There's not a second that goes by where I'm not in pain over you. I would have named my baby after you. I would've let them grow and learn your legacy too. I wish you were here, perhaps to see it one day.
