For This Person

It's hard:

to see someone struggling so hard

for another person.

to hear someone crying so broken-heartedly

out of love and concern.

to see someone being disappointed time after time,

yet, never giving up, never walking away...

It hurts so

that my heart aches

my vision gets blurry

a fur ball threatens to choke me

until finally, wetness moistens my cheeks.

As my chin falls to my chest

heaving meticulously with my ragged breaths,

i send a silent prayer

to wherever God may be:

For this person.
