Just Ask
I cannot bear to hear it.
The cries of those who are in need,
In need of help.
All I can say is,
"When you need me, I'm here."
Yet all I want to do is reach out,
Fixing what I can.
But I can't.
Limited by such,
Trivial things.
I cannot bear to hear it.
The cries of those who are in need,
In need of help.
Just ask.
Frankly, it kills me when I see anyone in need of help, for someone to just say, "I care". What really kills me is when I can't be there to say that when no one else will. I'll always try to say that; because it's true. I care for each and everyone of my friends and family. If you're reading this.. know that I'm here.
It is far better to grasp the universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring. -Carl Sagan
Times change, worlds change, but people, people never change.
What had started as an arduous project is now one of my passions. I love to write; this is where I try to paint pictures--with words. I'm a sophomore in high school, if you're wondering.

Hey big brother I'm commenting on you blog so be happy :) I really like this because I can really tell how much you care about your friends and family and I know how much you care. Great job!
though i havent known you that long, i can tell just how befitting and genuine this poem is to you
empathy, i think, is the right word.
food for thought, maybe just leave 'just ask' in the title
you should listen to 'road to jericho' by this providence <3
and 'do you feel' by the rocket summer
Thanks guys. Tina, I'll look at those songs! Morgan, thanks (:
Tina, empathy is an understatement.
Sidenote: For almost everything I write, I write it first and then decide a title. Thus, I don't narrow myself to describing just the title and I don't lose any creative potential.
This is probably one of my favorite journal entries you've ever done. It just really speaks to the reader and is full of emotion, which is what makes it worth reading. Keep it up Dilbert (:
