I'm An Empath
Could it be
True
that when ones
Humanity
shakes you
like a rag doll
as one fights
Every
Inch
of the way
not to feel
ones Heart
Break
as you try to swallow
the sobbing
the Mournful
Sounds
one step away
from the edge
of your mind
as your tears
try to blur
what you face
as a fading echo
of your voice
in your head
Whispers
the golden rules
Thou shall not
Stare
into the abyss
Alone
Thou can scream
But thou is not
Permitted
to Jump
to Merge
with the Pain
with the
Despair
Of Others
For that is the way
to Madness
One Must Control
The Pain
Or one can pretend
to be
Empathic
when one is only
Sympathetic
with a quick
google search
and a puppet smile
Boasting
that you understand
the feeling
of the meaning
of the word
Empathic
when in truth
One is
Just a Parasite
Feeding
off the Pain
Of Others
