I'm drowning.

I hear this everyday, not with words

But through their eyes they scream

out to me...I'm so alone.

They need me, but

I am helpless.

I will love them, but the battle

is within...I can do nothing.

I feel powerless, and if anyone

could just see what is happening,

They might make a difference.

It takes more than just me to

change how they feel inside.

We need everyone.

Reach out! We can save

them, let them

know that They are NOT alone!

They are amazing.

Incredible.

Individual.

and they need us.

So, what can we do?

We love them, we care,

We stop and listen.

We love.
