from cradle to hearse

the trouble with troubled people
is that
you can't help them.
fix them,
bring them to water
to drink.
we have no say in the matter.
they are
what they are,
for better or worse.
unchanged by
you or others, love
matters not to them,
no apologies or empathy
is ever known,
from the cradle
to the hearse.
