Empathy

To feel.
What others feel.
To see how others see.
And never flee.

To know others pain.
Like a mental stain.
Like a train.
Going through the brain.

Elation.
At its very creation.
Pleasure.
In all its measure.

But what is of more import.
Is all the support.
That you can give.
To help others live.

To reduce the pain.
So its no longer a bane.
To encourage the creation.
To drive them to higher elation.

To feed that measure.
To greater pleasure.
To feel all emotion.
With total devotion.

Its is a gift.
To know when to give others a lift.
Its also a curse.
Trying not to make things worse.
