I can't see you...
I can feel you.
I can hear your voice,
But nothing more.
Hearing is believing though,
For I hear it clearly.
Your sorrow, your agony,
Know that I share it.
I hear your sadness,
Flowing from your words.
You never say it directly,
But I hear it. I hear it.
I don't know what to say,
I never know what to do.
I know you don't want to talk,
But know I am here.
Here for what?
I have no idea.
Here to be here,
And I hope that will help.
What are these things we feel?
These emotions...these pains?
We never understand them...
We regard them as common place.
We know we love each other,
Yet we know not what love is.
An emotion, or an attraction?
A connection...a mystery?
I feel love when I hear you,
I feel sadness with your sorrow.
I feel anger when they stand
Between us, you and I.
I see you alone,
In your own dark room.
I don't feel I can reach you,
No matter what I do.
How can I bring you back?
Tell me how to cheer you up.
I want you to be happy...
It tears me apart to see you sad.
What can I say except that I love you?
What can I say except that I care?
What can I say except that I need you...
When your crying inside, in your dark corner.
Author notes
It tears me apart to see my one and only love sad. I know his family gets on his nerves A LOT, and when that happens I feel like there's nothing I can do to help. I try. It's the thought that counts, right?
This is dedicated to Cody, and Elizabeth too, who is dealing with the loss of a peer right now. I hope I can help them in whatever way I can.

Excellent
Wow. I've never had someone that I really love (besidesa family member), but I know that it sucks when my friends are sad. This piece really gives insight into love and emotion. I love it.
