THE EMPATHY FLU

It is said that; the saddest people are just hurting true?
for they were not born that way, they were created
by others infected with the empathy flu
spread by broken souls feeling blue and
experiencing just another bad day
a vicious cycle, a nasty flu stealing empathy along the way
spreading the ugly bug through family and friends to you
taking parents from children and children from parents
the highly contagious empathy flu.

No longer caring, or feeling, addiction is a selfish bitch
controlling an addict without prejudice for poor or rich
friends and family they start to avoid,
they no longer trust or love,  stolen empathy leaves them
narcissistic, self absorbed and paranoid
a tormenting self destructive rollercoaster ride
feeling empty and powerless as they try to fill
that endless hollow void inside.
with powerful insight it is an Empath’s worse nightmare
watching over these infected souls.

When you look at an addict and see the cycle of
sad enigma bleeding out through their skin
you will know that their soul is in bondage
and ridden with the empathy flu from within
show them understanding and empathy too
so they can fight off this horrific contagious flu
then addiction warrior healers can begin the
amazing work that they do
they need to be shown kindness, love and courage
those kind caring words and actions may easily come from you
help an addict today fight this dangerously growing epidemic
the empathy flu...
