Heartsick

I'm not sure if I've ever truly carried someone else's burden before until now because it feels like it has broken my own heart.  I have been up the last two nights, not being able to sleep.  I've tossed and turned and prayed that it would be just a nightmare that we could wake up from.  Nothing else is on my mind and it's hard to find joy when some things are absolutely devastating, heart-wrenching, and full of grief.  I am hurting alongside a friend, and knowing there are no words that I can say to make things better makes it worse.  My heart is just sick and my body feels ill, too, carrying this burden with her.
