Slipping

Wind whipped,
Raw,
I saw you there,
Head tipped forward in despair,
Shoulders slumped,
The will to care slipping away,
And it hurt my heart,
But there was nothing to say,
So I held you.

    • It is. There are just moments you realise all you can do is listen and/or hug. Can’t fix other people’s stuff no matter how much you wish you could.

Words, words, glorious words! Give me all of your words!
