Poem to my friend. He can endure anything.
Tell me you don't know it all
Make me regret it all
Just for the sake of it all
Tell me you hate it all
Tell me to end it all
I won't end it all

You are so depressed
You won't let me help
Just give me your hand
You can endure it
Even if it's not for you
Do it for me
Please
Just let me take care of you
Please
Don't end it
Please let me help you
Please?

You have broad shoulders
And yet the world crushes you
You have big hands
And yet cannot cling to life
You have strong arms
And yet you snap under the pressure

You send me an IM
'Would you just off me?'
I stare at it
Tears in my eyes
I will not end it for you
You can stand through it
No matter what happens
You can endure it
I know that you can
You have me here
Please, please remember

Every time you hold back tears
And every time you let them go
Every time you have something to say
And every time you can't say a word
I am here
Don't think that crying
Makes you weak
You are stronger
Than anything else

I know you can endure it
Look in to my eyes
Tell me you can't
You can't do it, can you?
Because, you know
If you have a hand to hold
An ear to listen
A voice to talk with
You will always
Stand through this.
