I never have really been able to pin point who I am
I am too much of every important person in my life
Recklessly in love, like my eldest sister
Yet quiet and reserved, as my brother
I carry the same intensity as my father
And the same careless actions of my mother
I am not very understanding to blatant ignorance
But if I share the same ignorance
I understand
I have questioned for many years
Why am I burdened with this
A teacher once told me it is because of the empathy I carry
strapped to my back
I feel its weight often
it is
tiring
and
trying
I wish I could rid it someway
But I fear I am stuck with it

And when
Right one comes
Nothing will be the same
And you will be grateful
Saying thank you
For all
The wrongs

So here, you will be
In the journey of dreams
Just how things are
For any act done
With nobel heart
Timing can't be wrong
Genre: Inspirational
Theme: Acknowledge
Author's Note: Never regret, when you have a right heart, even when nobody understands

I'm truly not trying to boast
Of my enormous greed
I have all that a human being
Could ever possibly need
No cancer, no dooms day disease
I've a heart of gold
So why do I grieve?

Everywhere I look I see sad eyes
Cutting strait through to my core
So many never make it this far
Did you lose, were you torn?

Her sad eyes were in my care
And then she died...
Now everyone's sadness
Eat's me alive

Okay all ready!
I feel you all
Suffocating me insane
I'm being drained
My energy flows
Downward
To the lowest of lows
Where lies the pain
That the miserable
Refuse to let go

Empathically
I am cursed
Tethered
To your emotional
Burst
I feel the babies
Crying in the night
My heart spring
Into thoughtless flight
The unrest of the downtrodden
Engulf my weary life

If I could only feel
Without a care
Turn away
And say a prayer
Someone else
I'd surely be
But that's just not
My destiny
...................................
P.S.
So please stop thinking so loud!
