Give Me

A girl who cares deeply for her friends and wishes to take away their pain.

Give me your sorrows
so I can put them in a jar
to be kept away in a
dusty, old cupboard.

Give me your sadness
so I can take your weights
that seem to drown you
with your own salty drops.

Give me your tears
so your eyes are no longer
blurry with pain, and you will
see there is happiness ahead
of you.

And finally give me your heavy heart
that crashes into your rib cage
and cries at every pump, so you can
see that there is life beyond this
sadness.
