I see the hurt you feel
and the pain in your eyes
I see you cry,
and cry,
and cry
but there's nothing I can do
there's no fix
but time
for heartbreak
I see the despair
the want for love
the tears flowing from your eyes
but there's nothing I can do
my hands,
their tied
you ask me why,
why would he do this
to you
he said he loved you
but I don't have answers
I only have arms
to hold you
while you cry,
and cry,
and cry.

This poem is about someone watching my heartbreak, but in their point of view.
