I can’t take it away.
But I promise,
I will be the one,
To stand,
When you can’t,
To cry with you,
To hold your hand,

I can’t make it go away.
I would if I could.
Through the pain,
The hurt, the tears,
I will be here.

I can’t change it,
Prevent it,
Mold it or form it,
Into something better,
Something easier,
It is what it is.

But I swear,
I will do everything I can.
To stand,
When you can’t,
To cry with you,
To hold your hand
