And I could do nothing about it.
Nothing, except wrap her up in my arms and lay still
While she wept like her heart would break.
Feeling her breath on my neck,
As the choked sobs escaped her throat,
Tasting the salt from her tears
Until they felt like they were my own.
Wishing I could absorb some of her pain.
Willing away the demons that tormented her.
Waiting for the tide to ebb.
We just lay there, limbs entwined.
As she cried…
