here we are

here we are

breathing through the open space

I see your face

So ashen grey

Where are the words I can say

To bring your life and joy back

There is an ocean here

I feel swelling inside of me

I know this tide of feeling

Will rise

And there will be for me

No way to hold all of these tears

Inside

For one more second

I remember the deadness in her eyes

And I cannot lie

About how much is scares me

To see it again

There is so much life out there

Waiting for you

If only you could find the way home

But sometimes it seems you are so deeply lost

And try as I might

There is no way I know

What to do

To rescue you

From yourself
