You softly speak trying to hide the tears; yet they run like a waterfall through your words. You feel lost. You feel alone. You feel bound to a fate that locks you within a cage with no hope of escape. No matter how much you smile for the outside world, I can feel the true sadness within your heart.

As I sit and listen as you pour out your heart and soul my heart dies a little with each and every word. I cannot begin to know first-hand the pain you are feeling; but I feel a deep sadness within myself knowing that you are going through this difficult time. I want to reach out to you and take away all the hurt, the sadness, the pain; yet I cannot. I can only give you an ear that listens and a heart that longs to help bring you happiness.

It is not only I that feels your pain, he does too. He is there in your heart feeling all that you feel; knowing all the hurt that wraps around you. He is there to comfort you if you let him in. He is there for you at all times when others cannot be. He grieves with you and he will comfort you. He loves you. Let him in.
