For Us

I want to tell you everything will be okay,

Or “this too shall pass”.

I want to wipe away your tears and pain,

Or at least ease it a little.

But I am just as broken, and lost as you,

And every word tastes bitter,

Useless, and arrogant.

Still, I cry for you, pray for you.

I hold out hope for peace, and love.

For you.

For me.

For us.
