Array ( [sid] => 104048 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Helpless [time] => 2005-08-21 01:42:10 [hometext] => Its tuff to watch freinds and loved ones going threw bad times, but maybe even harder knowing all you can do is stand beside them. When all you really want to do is take it all away. [bodytext] => I can’t get over this feeling
There most be something I can do?
To watch with out helping
Make me feel so untrue

I see the pain in your eyes
It makes me cry
I feel the hurt in your heart
That I can’t take away no matter what I try

I know sometimes you feel
You’ve done something wrong
That some how god is punishing you
For the things which for you long

None of this is your fault
I wish I could make you see
There are things in life you just can’t control
Even if Wonder Woman you happen to be

The struggles you’ve had to go thru
The pain that you feel
Trying everyday to keep from going insane
Doing all that you can to deal

I stand here on the outside wishing
I could help you with all this mess
Take my hand, let me help you thru
Maybe we can both shake this feeling of being Helpless

Very good write, but not only does everyone at some point feel helpless, but most people at some point are also in the situation you based your poem on. Very good, keep it up.

This is lovely.

I hope they appreciate what you are doing for them.

I like the message behind this, too. That with help people can shake off these feelings but that you can't always do it on your own.

Good write.
*hugs* Phil xxx

Your words are very much appreciated..
I thank you.. Some things we have to find within ourselves..
Theres nothing you can do but watch in the shadows..
Its like finding your way in the dark, Looking for that light..
In the end will you still be there with the light?
Don't take my words wrong.....I am not helpless just lost within

Nicely expressed poem of wanting to help someone, but unsure how...The first and last stanzas were particularly effective. Good job with this write: )

A touching, heartfelt piece of poetry. I'm sure your friend appreciates it heaps, but sometimes there are things one needs to sort out by themselves.
You're a kind, thoughtful and wonderful person. A truly touching write for a friend in need.
Hugs,
Dreamer
