i can't bear to know this
and not do anything.
i just want to help, but
i have this feeling that i'll be making it worse.
i want them to be safe.
i just want them to be safe.
everyone keeps telling me that the only way to protect them is
to stay away.
to run.
but how can i do that?
how can i abandon them like little children
waiting forever on the steps of some school.
through rain and snow, sun and sleet.
until they grow from rosy-cheeked little kids
to bitter teenagers, floowed by a haze of rage
that follows them, clouding their every move.
how can i doom them to that fate?
how can i let them take the road i was forced to take?
how can i just leave?
