Helpless – Poem based on a mentally troubling situation

[Drake M.]

This poem is based on a personal situation…Read and take it however you want and keep any unnecessary comments to yourself…

* * * * * * * * * *

I’ve known you for as long as I can comprehend

A strong connection built even though it’s distant

Picked each other up when we didn’t understand

It’s shocking what can change in an instant

 

Words can only do so much as actions can kill

I watch from the side lines, seeing every play

I can’t do anything about it as I feel a chill

Should I drop my life or just sit and stay?

 

There’s lack of protection, but still I support

I guess I can’t control it and I can’t restrain

I just remain idle and watch as it really hurts

Sometimes I want to lash out, but I refrain

 

I witness all, but I am completely powerless

Weak to weakest even though I try to help

Ever wonder when something becomes useless?

I feel drained now as I listen to you yelp…

 

I become numb and now becoming emotionless

You tear yourself apart and say it’s harmless

Life becomes a blur as you fall below the surface

Hopeless as I see this…I’m nervous…I feel helpless

I only know a bit of the situation but this poem hits to the core. 

I become numb and now becoming emotionless

You tear yourself apart and say it’s harmless

 

My heart is with you and I'm always there if you need to reach out.
