Saw her cry
Saw her reach out for help
Saw her crawl
Should have helped!
She needed me
She needed you
She needed us
Should have helped!
Longed to be loved
Longed to be heard
Longed to be one of us
Should have helped!
Desired to smile
Desired to dream
Desired to hope
Should have helped!
Saw her turn away
Saw her fade away
Should have helped!

This is very sad!
Afterthoughts. Sometimes we just don’t think in time.
You are right Carol. Sometimes it’s fear that may keep us from reaching out to friends that need us.
We always see our flaws and failures in hindsight. 😢
A look at the steps we have taken, good to bad, is always present.
