When Do You Quit Falling Apart?

When do you quit falling apart? When you sit by the sidelines watching the one who has saved your Life… Hurt themselves by making Poor Decisions and just really selfish ones… And all you can do is… Just sit by and watch… And keep your mouth shut… Maybe it is because in telling the truth to him… You do not want to hurt him… Maybe it is also because you are told not to say a word… Over and over again! It is hard to not be destroyed by the Pain he endures… Maybe it is because of the things I do… And really because of my health… But the things he does to himself… How do you try to be more supportive? Smack upside his head… And tell him to stop! Is there any clue to only being able to sit by and shutting up? And just accepting that… And only able to keep a clear face… Even when you know that all he will do… Will only really hurt him…
