A poem written for a friend in pain.

I see you, I feel you
I don’t have to look hard
To see what’s inside you
And know how beautiful
You are

I see your tears
I feel your pain
I’m overwhelmed by your
Confusion and shame


My beautiful friend
You don’t have to stay here
Let me help you
Leave from this space
You deserve to be happy
And wear a smile on your face

Undeserved hurt has been inflicted
It has cut you deep like a knife
Don’t let this pain
Destroy what’s left of your life

Pick up the pieces
Of your shattered heart
What is broken
Can be made whole
No matter how torn apart

Look into my eyes
See the reflection of your heart
You don’t have to look hard
To see how beautiful
You are
