All the wrong words

I'm sorry you're in pain
You're right I can't heal you
I can't fill all those wounds
I want to though
It fills me with dread
Drenches me in sorrow
It's all I feel from you
I stopped talking
Of those who make me happy
It seems you only hurt more
I wish I could make you laugh
That I could end your loneliness
Inspire you with laughter
Offer you a smile of your own
You try to pretend sometimes
I see right through it
Not on purpose
It's the need to protect
To make it all better
And yes it's selfish
I hate to be depressed
When the pain isn't my own
It tears me apart inside
Torches my hyper spirits
Crushes my laughter
My own happiness
I won't tell you though
It would only cause more hurt
To both you and me
So I'll release it slowly
Purging it in words
Strung together
As though shattered crystal

passing shadows
