[hometext] => Questions I never knew I had untill tonight.
[bodytext] => Trying to find the me inside, Emptiness ~ No tears to cry, Not much reaches and grabs hold, Is my heart made of stone? ~~~ For friends in pain I can be, What they seem to need from me, I know the words and what to say, When a friend cries with pain that stays, I can hold their hand and not let go, Walk their road as silence flows, I can stay with them day and night, Or sit on the phone as they recite, The horror that has been bestowed, The pain they believe ~ That no one knows, I can give their pain ~ Unknown words, Entwined with pictures ~ They feel heard, Take these words and pictures too, Matte and frame ~ Their past in view, This seems to give some relief, And yet, they hold it ~ And cry in grief. ~~~ Where is the me? ~ When I summon them, I don’t cry ~ For her or him, Where is the me? ~ Why don’t I cry? Am I dead? ~ When did I die?
