Grimace

I'm sorry I'm not more.

I'm sorry that all I can do is hold your hand as you scratch at your face in despair.
I'm sorry that you're losing weight because you can't stomach food
--you claim it's ashes in your mouth.
I'm sorry that I cant be bigger and stronger in order to hold you close as you cry.
I'm sorry that you've got all this to deal with.
I'm sorry that I can't be closer.
I'm sorry that you're basically in the dark.
I'm sorry that I can't be the one to help you see your mistakes.
I'm sorry that you've walked into this completely aware.
I'm sorry that they had to see.

I feel bad.
