I'm actually needed, Needed! I'm sitting there having the woman that I love tell me her problems, and that is all that runs through my head.

What the fuck is wrong with me?

Why is it that when people run to me with problems I can be there for them, I can be witty, and helpful for them. Why not for the people I actually care about!

All I can do is sit there and listen, and watch her face, and look at that damned scar on her arm. I want to help her!

"Because I love you
I get tongue-tied around you

I always know what to say. Always. I've handled divorces, marriages, pregnancies, cheating boy/girlfriends, and a plethora of depressions

But there, and then, I didn't know what to say.

two half discovered people, halfway to tears.	Hi, I couldn't help noticing that your life sucks	Hands cupped into a half circle, he bent foward to help her catch a light	Formatting poems and simple HTML
I silently accepted your wordless apology	I cannot help but think in scenes and paint in memories	These are words silently meant for you	When all you want is help, and all you receive is pain
What is wrong with me?	Scar	Helping someone who practices self-mutilation	Proposal for a new system to help introduce new users into E2
I have never been sure that you knew quite how much I loved you	How can I help but use your eyes as a means for self-asphyxiation?	Dan Bern	June 13, 2019
She asked me to read her a poem	If everything you do is a cry for help, no one will listen	You say you want to help me	It's 5:30 am. Do you know where my sleep is?
