I lay here watching as the sands of time run from your eyes.
Helplessly I wait as your soul cracks,
Spindling a spiders web on the verge of shattering

My inner core carved from the glass of your broken sorrows.
Deep in every crevice of your veins,
You begin to bleed dry.

I hear your screams of wondering why.
I try to absorb some of your pain,
But all it does is drown me in a devouring sludge,
Trying to consume us both.

I wish to caress your feint beating heart,
But you can't hear my words or feel my touch through the shattering breeze of a dreaded distance
Feeling broken inside, because unable to help someone I care dearly about and distance restricts as they are slowly being torn apart :(
