thoughts, poems and teenage shit

the compassion

To feel

for everything and everyone

is a curse

but also somehow

a blessing in disguise

I somehow am connected

to the entire world

simply through emotion

There are people in this world who don't seem to

care

enough

but then there's me

that cares enough for myself

and every single person that does

not

care

Some may call me

naive

overwhelming

or foolish

but I just can't walk through

life

stepping on feet

I have to be the one that lends

a hand

Wiser decisions have been made

putting others before myself is not one I'm proud of

I deserve to show myself

more compassion

I just can't help what I see in others

that I don't see in

myself

something that's worth it

It's part of having a mind

that ultimately cares too much about everyone else

but not enough about itself
