I see pain
Suffering
And choices left unchosen

I see tears
Destruction
Words left unspoken

I just want to help
Save you from yourself
Keep you forever

You smile through the pain
Trying to see sun through the rain
Thinking tour worthless
When you’re everything to me

I can’t let you be
You may not ever see
But I will always trust you
And I will never forget you

To love is to be vulnerable; Triumph is born out of struggle; We notice shadows most when they stand alone in the midst of overwhelming light.

Very impressive... I can feel the deep feelings and I can so easily relate to it. It was so beautiful and yet sad in some way. Short but so meaningful and strong. It simply says it all. I love it. Keep up the great work cuz you're really talented ^_^ Thank you so much for sharing this.

I can see the feelings involved behind the poem, and I love some of your simple phrases. I like the length, too. But isn't the word supposed to be 'you're' in 'Thinking tour worthless'?
