Finding you in that distressed way
My memory will not erase.
So long ago when you came to me
Forever I memorized your face.

We fought the battle together
I feared to leave you alone.
Always being the one to catch you
My support was always shown.

I held you close when you were broken
Many wounds you felt back then.
Such time it took to make it better,
To have you now break once again.

The author's comments:
I wrote this after I had a friend come come out of an abusive relationship. This was not only written for her though, I have many friends who seem to fall into a cycle of heartbreak and hurt. I always seem to be the one to help them through it, and it hurts me when they go and put themseves in the same positions again, and again.
