What About Him? Poem by Karina Castle

10/16/2008

So many problems
So much on his mind
I know hes not happy
But I try to be kind

He doesn't talk to me
I just want to be there
I hold him so much
I hope he knows I care

He gets so depressed
I don't know what to do
He mopes around the house
And it brings me down too

I want to help but how?
He wont let me in
Talking might help
Why cant he see?

He writes about cutting
And ending his life
Am I that horrible?
Do I make him feel strife?

I love him so much
But I fear I hurt him
I want his life bright
But it is very dim

Hope things get better
And me he wants to hold
Things will get better
He cant always be so cold
