My Dearest

Today I heard someone cry,
she wasn't too far from me,
only about fifteen feet or so,
her crys echoing over to me.
It hurt,
I wanted so bad to help,
to show her that somebody,
someone that dosn't know her,
cares.

Even if it is to comfort her,
I wanted to help,
but they wouldn't let me.
They said no no we'll handle this,
so I'm forced to sit as her sobs tear at me.

When we were taken back to our rooms,
I felt so defeated.

I wanted to help,
I want to make a difference in someones life.
But I don't,
I can't.

I have to stand by helplessly as people I care about,
even total strangers,
suffer so much.

My touch,
my words,
they only make it worse,
I can't help at all.

If I touch you,
your life will only get worse.

You don't need me,
I am toxic.

You don't need me,
you're better off it you didn't know me.

You don't need me,
I should have never been born.

You don't need me,
I'll only make things worse,
I'm sorry I can't help,
I'm sorry I can't make a difference.

I'm sorry.

You don't need me.
You don't need me at all.
