Magic Shoes

How bad does it feel when you know someone is hurting, but there's not a damn thing you can do to help them, except hold onto them and promise them you'll try to make them happy every day?

How frustrating not to be able to turn back time (Superman style) and give that person back the things they never got to have?

Someone I love was hurt continuously a long time ago and it shaped his life more than anyone will ever understand. Even I don't know probably more than a fraction of it, but I see the damage.

I wish in this instance those shoes really were magical because if they were I'd click them furiously until we were transported to a better place.
