If I had the power…
I’d transfer your pain to myself.
I’d take every hurt, and ache you feel,
And I’d make them my own.
Every tear you’ve cried,
Every sigh that has escaped your lips,
Every sleepless night,
Every sob,
Would be mine.

If I had strength unparalleled…
I’d hold you in my arms,
And let you cry,
Until every tear had drained from your eyes.
Every night you spent weeping,
Every feeling of unhappiness,
Every regretful emotion you felt,
Every empty stare into space,
Would be mine.

I’m sorry that I don’t possess that power,
And I’m sorry that I don’t  hold that strength.
I’m sorry, that I can’t make your world right.
But I’ll lend what I can,
You can have my shoulder to cry on,
And my hand to hold.
And I’m going to love you,
As much as you may need.
Until, you have the power, and the strength,
To move on.
