Let Me Help You

The world has changed
we have filled it with pain
and anger and hate.
But you do not have to be alone through it.

Let me be here with you,
tell me what's hurting you
because I want to know.
Do not suffer alone.

What do you mean you can't stay?
You know that I love you,
please, let me be here for you.
To hold you close, and try.

Just let me try.
I am not perfect,
I know that.
And I know that I cannot take away your hurt.
But at least let me try,
because I love you,
and I do not want you to be alone.

Please, don't worry about me,
I want to have your problems.
Look at me, don't you see how important you are?
I want to help you, any way I can.

Don't leave me in the dark,
tell me what you see.
Let me know when something is hurting you,
because I want to fight them off.

But I can't help you,
I can't kill your demons
unless you let me in.
Unless you trust me
with the pain.
