The empath in me

Your pain burns a hole in my heart
I feel the heat of your flames
I see the struggles in your soul
Your words that are not spoken
I see and feel everything
You are never alone

When someone dies
Your pain becomes mine
When someone treats you badly
I feel the disappointment
I see the hurt in your eyes
Here, I stand with you, gladly

I don’t always know what to do
As I listen to your story
I will hold space for you
In the times you need me most
Remember my door is always open
Now, lets start a chapter that’s new
