I want to call, text.
I want to reach out and hug you.
I want to say that word, phrase . . . that one thing that will take away the pain
Shattered. The news was shattering.
How can I tell you
How much I care
How much I am sorry
How deeply I feel
How can it be enough, how can anything be enough
Right now
What will I do
Next time I see you
To hug or say a word
Will bring the shattered glass back
I want to glue it together
But I'm afraid I'll break it yet again
I don't know why . . . it's not for us to know why
I won't say something . . . "to make you feel better"
I can't
Those words don't exist
Not yet anyways
Not now
Only time
All I have . . . right here, right now
All I can offer . . . all I can give
Are my heart, my prayers, my deep desire
To take away your pain
To repair the shattered dream
To help you . . . some how, some way
But all I can do
Is tell you I care, I'm sorry
And to spread as many thoughts and prayers
And let you know
I'm right here

And that is often enough. You care. Your friends and family are blessed to know you.
