Love Poem: Help

Help

I hear of you crying-
You ask of nothing-
Just help.
I can't be there-
Offer a shoulder-
Just help.
I can't remove him-
Make you forget-
Just help.
I can't 
Lock a box- 
Send it away-
Make you strong-
Confident inside-
Just help.
If I could, 
I would,
Without a doubt, 
Kill your pain-
Give you the world-
Make it rain-
Wash your fears away-
Forever-
My only pedestal 
Would belong to you-
But I can't-
I'm sorry-
I can give you nothing-
Just help.
