Why are you here?
How do you feel?
These questions you ask
Pull at my heart

I look at your eyes
And see your pain
For once allowing
Your emotions to show

To see the tears
Forming in your eyes
I can barely stop mine
From starting to come

I pull you close
Trying to comfort you
As much as I can
Or am able

For if I could
Take the pain away
I would do so in an instant
For you to be in pain

Pains me as well
And to take your pain
and see you happy again
Would be a wondrous
thing indeed
