The perks of being a wallflower
so depleted
it takes it out of you
feeding off the darkness
I can not help this
for you see
I am a wallflower
apparently
others might say loner
I don't care much
for labeling fragile
broken things
tattered wings
I do know this
for those friends
that wish to talk
I will bear that pain
empathy is my burden
it takes it out of you
feeding off the darkness
I can not help this
for you see
I am a wallflower
apparently
others might say loner
I don't care much
for labeling fragile
broken things
tattered wings
I do know this
for those friends
that wish to talk
I will bear that pain
empathy is my burden

Don't ever feel it a curse to be you 💗 Empaths have a special place in this world, although underestimated, although taken for granted, although used and sometimes abused. Rise, my lovely. Rise. You're amazing! ❤️
