Love Poem: Only the Bad

Only the Bad

I see the agonizing pain, how you suffer
I am suffering too; I don’t know how to help you
Your face is twisted as tears weave a basket of sorrow
I don’t know what to do, I love you

Watching you breakdown and lose yourself
is the worst thing that’s ever happened to me
If only I could be a mirror and reflect back to you
all that I see

I’m not leaving, I’ll be with you
Kind words are a feeble mend
Feeling helpless
But we’ll get through

I see all the good and you, only the bad
