Nor can I create a brighter future, alone

I cannot live in fear
Of losing the things I hold most dear

I cannot accept an apology
When there is no meaning behind empty words

I cannot carry all your burdens

I cannot be everything to everyone
Although, I wish I could

I cannot trust old enemies
For fear of repeating the past

I cannot let go
For life is too precious

I cannot feel safe
Under control

I cannot learn from mistakes
When I keep giving in

I cannot keep silent
For there are too many worries,
To many risks, for fear of shadows roam

I cannot be someone else
Although I have strived for perfection,
Only to learn; one walking to high
Will stumble

I cannot change the past
Nor can I create a brighter future, alone....
One must learn,
The only reason one "cannot"
Is because one tries to acheive alone;
For the things I cannot do myself,
My friend, you are there
To show me
