How can I help
(A story always has two sides)
The doors are open here
We have food for you to eat
We have a warm place
Where you can sleep
I promise
No one is here to judge you
You don’t even have to give us
Your “real’ name
Please
Come in
It’s going to be five degrees tonight
The doors are open here
Let us shelter you from this storm
----I’ve heard this all before
----You don’t want to help
----You just want to change me
----You want to feel better
----By helping someone
----Someone worse off then yourself
----I don’t want your help
----I don’t need your “charity”
----I can make it on my own
How can I help you
What do you want me to do
What do you need for me to do
Why won’t you let me help you
----I am not broken
----I am not something you can fix
----I can do this on my own
----Don’t you see
----I don’t fit where you are
----Why don’t you just leave me alone
----Why don’t you simply go away
I can only answer you with this
No matter who you are
Not matter what you have done
No matter what others think or say about you
There are simply four words to answer your questions
Because I love you
----How can you love someone
----Like me
