there is a face on a screen
telling me it wants to die
telling me it loves me
telling me it's mine

and all i want is to take your pain
but all i can be is miles away

Author's Note: there is so much more to say and no way at all to say it. a friend of mine is suicidal and pushing me away. i keep at him. i try. i try to let him know he's loved and special. i live hours away. i can't take care of him like i'd usually take care of a friend. i don't know what to do. i feel so much fear and worry and guilt for not being able to do more. this is weighing on me like an anvil on the chest.
