What to do?

Distress. Frustration. Heartache. Pain. What do you say to someone when there's nothing to say? What do you do when you aren't physically there to reach out and hug them? All you want to do is give them a way to let go of their worries and pain, but how? Feeling helpless and upset because of it. Sensing that there's something more you should do but knowing you've done all you can. Stuck. Like a stick swirling in the eddy of a river. Going round and round and not knowing how to change this. Stuck in a loop of thought that can't be broken regardless of what is stated. Confused. Lost. Hating this feeling of being useless. Understanding the words but not really being able to relate. Knowing what is being said but not agreeing with it. Though, also not having the words to express the contrasting thoughts. Doing all that can be done but still wondering if it's enough. There is no real way to know and no way of changing it if it's not. Thinking too much. Stress. Worry. Fear.
