It Hurts

I can see deep inside you,
With one glance into your eyes.
I can see your darkest secrets,
And the blackness of your skies.

I can see everything in you,
All the pain you've endured.
And all the times you prayed,
From this pain you would be cured.

Inside its like you're dying,
Wishing that someone would help you.
Wondering if these are really,
The cards that God dealt you.

But not on the outside,
That’s just a different story.
You seem like the perfect girl,
In your high honor of glory.

Always a smile on your face,
And happiness in your voice.
Pretending that you’re just fine,
While sad moments you rejoice.

The pain just wont go away,
Since you’re too hurt inside.
And your world is so cold and dark,
Always leaving you teary-eyed.

It breaks my heart to see,
That you’re feeling so much pain.
And it hurts knowing you think,
Your life’s going down the drain.

I know that I cant help you,
Since now we’re far away.
I just wish that I could stop,
Your life from being so gray.

But I cant do anything,
It just hurts me to see you hurt.
I just wish there was a way,
I could rid your discomfort.

You told me about the times,
That you would cry everyday.
Overwhelmed by your tears,
Broken on the floor you’d lay.

I wish so much I could just,
Take away your pain and tears.
So then I would be the one,
Who would suffer for endless years.

But that’s impossible to do,
And I cant stop your cries.
Though I promise always,
I’ll be there to dry your eyes.

I also promise you this,
To always remain your best friend.
And as long as I’m here for you,
You’ll never have to cry again..
