To watch someone die
Not being able to do anything about it
But be there
Feeling so helpless, so hopeless
There's so many thoughts swirling
Too many, it hurts
How to act; carefree? Sad?
Just waiting for the end
Strength is needed
for the dying and the living
Guilt is weighing heavily
But it doesn't do any good now
The past is gone
Not much future
One day at a time
Now, one moment at a time
