Description
I am the holder of your troublesI am the one who bleeds when you're hurt
I am the one who takes the blame when you fall
I am the one who suffers as you live in the sunlight
I am fallen
I am broken
But I will not show you
I will not let you see that I am in pain
I gladly endure this pain
For you to know joy
Be thankful that one suffers for your sake
Be thankful that one cares so deeply for you
I will never let you hurt
If I can stop it
Even if me life is the price

I'm sorry, do you mean to put 'me' instead of 'my'? Anyway, it's a really beautiful poem. Definitely ing it.

I thought that was an important distinction you made in saying that you endure it gladly, as opposed to begrudgingly.
That is the difference between compassion and obligation.

People turn to me too. This reminds me of my friend and her problems.
