I know she hurts

I know she hurts inside and for her I've prayed,
I've seen those scars on her arms each one self-made.
And I try understand all that pain she feels inside,
And Why she hurts herself but I just can't…. believe me I've tried.

And inside I'm so annoyed that I have absolutely no control
That I can't stop her from that piece of object in her hand she holds.
I go out of my mind that I can't protect her from herself,
that she's the one in control and no one else..

Its hard for me to believe that they're not mistakes,
That each one on her body she intentionally creates.

And I see it in her thoughts the answers she gives me,
She doesn't care anymore about the life she leads.
And I see her anger and her impulsive ways,
Her demands, her wants I'm faced with everyday.

I feel so guilty for not always wanting to be there,
Believe me for her I do still care.,
And at times I can handle it when she shouts and screams
But when its so consistent its harder then it seems

And all I want to do is help her but I just stand there and watch,
And come to realize how one person you love can hurt you so much…
