It hurts

It hurts when you feel like you're losing the people you care about.
It hurts when you laugh knowing they might cry
It hurts when they dissapoint
It hurts the knowledge that they might fade away soon
It hurts the anger when there is nothing you can do
It hurts to care about them too

A poem by a son who lost his dad to alcohol
Because even when you gave it your all, and in the end it changed me too
