Your brokenness within has been contained long enough!
You can't bear it any longer,
not alone you can’t.
I surrender my strength to you.
Lighten your load,
you are not alone in this world of cruelty—
among people and animal alike.
I have seen you break before
it left behind scares I do not wish to see on you again.
They make you imperfect,
yet all you are to me is perfect.
If you just take my strength,
just a little and you will feel better.
No!
Walk no further.
I stand behind you, beside you.
I trust you.
You don't have to go through anymore turmoil.
I’m not the only one that will lose you.
Not even your family.
Your family will lose a son,
their blood line will end if you end.
You are not the only one
who has brokenness.
I am broken too—
you see.
You don’t have to leave.
Just don't leave—
Please.

Broken souls need time and find their own readyness. Perseverence often pays off.
With genuine hands held out the sufferer has a rope to pull on and must feel more security as your tender lines state - -a fine read of compassion and all it means.
Helping others can fix them as you are doing with your words.

the poetic sincerity, in your impassioned plea
is evident, for us all to see..
