Poems

Empathy.
I told you how I felt
You see me cry inside.
I just gave you my heart
in the palm of your hand.
I thought you don't care
what I was thinking about.
You didn't have a reaction,
but now I think it's fine.
How would you imagine
how bad I was feeling?
How would you know
what I needed to know?
I can't explain
what I really feel.
You can't see
what I really see.
It wasn't your fault,
Now I'm so embarrassed.
You just pay the price
for non-existent empathy.
Empathy doesn't exist if we cannot experience things from another perspective. It's an illusion, it's just an attempt at empathy.
