Elucidating Questions

Mind, I wish you would be still

There is nothing we can do

We are here and they are there

As always

My arms don’t feel long enough

I wish to reach them and show them it’s going to be okay

Unlikely

If my will was enough

I’d be there with them

A dream that never comes true

I knew it was running out

Ah well

Not for me to feel

For they

Mind I do wish you’d be still

So very far away from where we wanted to be when this moment came

I can only sit in silence and contemplate his pain

Wish I could will it away

It doesn’t feel like I can do anything

When you just wish you could hold them for a moment

As ever, miraculously useless

Am I

How do I help them?

Distance and imbalance

How I wish I could just

Just hold you together for a moment

My love

I wish I could take away the pain
