Tears of Heaven

Helplessness and a jolt shoot through my body

Compassion and a desire for change

Reminds me of my powerlessness

As I watch you fall apart I want to put you back together

Roles reversed

Wanting to protect you fills every crevice of who I am

To shield you and hold you until your tears are dry

I welcome your vulnerability

Wishing I could help you and make the pain go away

Watching this pillar crumble for a moment

Brings me closer

I see into your heart

A connection through blood and tears

Forever I remain with you

I’ll support you when you can’t do it yourself

I’m here for you
