You Still Need Help, Love



You always needed more help


than any single one of us could offer.

And I feel as though this is why

you were so addicted to sorrow filled

needles and alcohol running down

alongside the over used ink in your veins.


You always needed more help


than emergency rooms and knowledge

had to give anyone out there. But

goddamn it, Hun, I tried like hell

to give you everything I could.


You always needed more help


than doctors could prescribe,

more than scientists could even name.

And I tell myself day after day

that's the real reason you ran away.


You still need help, Love.
