Healing

If I'm helping you, I don't feel like I need help.

 

You dropped from a limb with a broken wing,

those green eyes,

and a sad smile that let slip the stress and hurt

that you've been sleeping with for months.

 

I have loved listening.

The way you share makes me feel important again,

as though my time is never wasted,

and like being whole is something I'm capable of. 

 

Thank you.
