It Kills me

It kills me...
To see the young go hungry
It kills me...
to hear the sobs of a child as their \"father\" beats them. For they have done nothing to deserve it
It kills me...
To sit in this cell, made to be content with that which I have the power to control
It kills me...
To know that I am not able to protect those that have earned it
It kills me...
To realize that if I were there things could have been different
It saves me...
To finally come to terms with the fact that I am only one person.
