I talked to him About how today was hard And I was tired And felt ill I didn't give him many details Because he didn't quite deserve to know Yesterday was harder That was the initial crash Today was the crumble The final downfall The worst part Is that nothing At all Directly affected me It was hall her And her dad And how she No longer has one If you share your problems with me I will immediately turn them into my problems And feel almost as bad about them As you do It's not intentional It just kind of happens Like a rainbow Or a hurricane I've been told That the feeling Is called empathy And I'm empathetic When I told him I'm empathetic He misunderstood me You're not pathetic Though I appreciate the sentiment Taken from mistaken words I honestly believe That both statements are true
