Worried

I'm worried

Worried about you

I'm not close enough yet

To see what you are going through

I can't know what it is

But I'm sure it's a lot

You'd tell me that you're fine

Even though you're not

My arms are a safe place

You can cry there

I want you to know

That I do care

If you don't want me to be around

That is okay

And maybe 

I'll come back some day

If you need to hold a hand

You can take mine

And if you go searching for another hand

That's fine

And if you don't want to talk to anyone

You don't have to

We don't have to know

That you've been feeling blue

If I can do anything for you

Just let me know

And if you're getting tired of me

Tell me and I'll let you go.


This poem was very painful to write. It's about thinking someone isn't fine and worrying about them. You like this person so you want to help them but you can't because you don't know what you are to them. So there is nothing you can do. It still is very painful to read. I hope you like it.
