As you wept
in our bed
I did not know
what to do
I could not know
your despair
or the pain
that ran through you
There are things
that can be shared
but others only
to be endured
Sometimes words
cannot heal
and assurances
have no weight
So I gave what I had-
my ears
and the warmth
of my embrace
For today
it was enough.
