Sigh

She needs my help, I know it.
So why can't I?
I've been there before, I've done it. 
But I only sigh.

I have stories, I have sympathy,
I have advice, I have empathy.

But it doesn't matter,
I can't do better.

Because I can only sigh.
When she needs to talk,
She says she wants to die,
But in silence we walk.

I feel so helpless,
She thinks I care less.

I feel so shy,
Because i only sigh.

But I've been there.
She has to throw her dice.
I can't do it for her,
Not even to give advice.

I like this. it really shows the feeling of helplessness when you really want to help a friend but know that you can't, i've been there plenty of times. Good job :D

Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
