Undying Wound

The sickness is flowing through your veins,
And you are oblivious.
It’s affecting everyone around you,
Yet your refuse help.
Instead you push your problems on me,
Causing me to go under along side you.

I stay faithfully,
Trying to make you understand.
Under my loving hand
You pull us down farther,
Disregarding my cries.

I don’t know how you could do this to me.
To someone who holds loves you,
And holds you so dear,
And to not understand that my pleas are for my safety,
As well as yours.

So as you drown out my fruitless cries,
I slowly let go of your hand,
And find my way back to my life.
