i think the hardest part is watching
watching where you stand
someone shattering
becoming less of what they should be
watching someone make the wrong choices
and there's nothing you can do about it
you can't change people's minds
you can't choose for them
so you just stand and watch
from the distance
someone losing themself
losing their soul
losing their spirit
if they ever even had it in the first place
and as much as you want to help
and feel their pain
and feel like you can do something to help them
you can't
you can't help them
and most of all,
you can't let it bring you down too
and yet, we humans love to feel each other's pain
because misery enjoys company
in fact, it's like a magnet that attracts it
i want to help you
but you need to help yourself first
