Buy Meeting On The Turret StairsAll I Can Do
By: Carol HuberI wish I could hold you
and protect you from evil
I wish I could promise
that nothing would ever harm you
But the harm already happened
long ago
And the screams I hear are memory
frozen in time
I wish I could hold you
and tell you that I love you
and promise that no one would ever do that again
But the screams are memory
and it’s your memory not mine
Will you share with me the burden?
I can’t stop the hurt
I can’t stop the pain
It already happened
Oh, so long ago
When we were just a child
All I can do
Is offer my strength and my love
and offer to share
Your pain
My love
Our healing...
