I understand your emotions I use them like a premotion Like a foretelling A chance for me to hop at A plan for me to utilize I understand your emotions I abuse them before you realize I’m nothing special I can’t understand myself I’m empathetic yet I can’t put myself in my own shoes. Given a decision I don’t know what I’ll do. I’m driven yet not I’m a perfectionist surrounded by his own imperfection I’m struggling but I’m not The list goes beyond my conception My brain is a labyrinth created For my protection I’m empathetic but not sympathetic I care but only materially I can only think pragmatically Perhaps I’m not a person But instead something dead

Empathy
I understand your emotions I use them like a premotion Like a foretelling A chance for me to hop at A plan for me to utilize I understand your emotions I abuse them before you realize I’m nothing special I can’t understand myself I’m empathetic yet I can’t put myself in my own shoes. Given a decision I don’t know what I’ll do. I’m driven yet not I’m a perfectionist surrounded by his own imperfection I’m struggling but I’m not The list goes beyond my conception My brain is a labyrinth created For my protection I’m empathetic but not sympathetic I care but only materially I can only think pragmatically Perhaps I’m not a person But instead something dead
I’m tired. But I felt like writing so I did.
