The greater pain than the one you feel
Is the one you see in the ones you love
The one you can't make go away
Cannot ease or take on as your own
That you neither caused
Nor can conclude
But must play its course
And you are the witness to the sorrow and the grief
The despair and the gloom
The melancholy that it brings to that beloved person of yours
When sympathy is not appropriate
And distraction isn't possible
When you're powerless to in any way lessen the pain
When all you can do
Is to be there
And to experience that hurt with them
To watch as it changes them
As it pulls them to their depths
And then to wait
Wait for the feeling to subside
To diminish
And all the while
You would trade
In an instant
And have that pain be yours rather than theirs
Have their heavy heart be weighed on you
And release them of that load of agony
To take it on and free them of their state of dreariness
Absorb it
And battle it for yourself
Even if it were strong enough to destroy you
Just to save from ever seeing them feeling so hopeless
That is the pain greater than pain itself
When the ones we love hurt
We feel their pain tenfold
