Empathy is tiring.

I want to help

But can't

Because I'm just me!

At sixteen years,

Full of emotions

Feeling every other's emotions

Waiting for someone to just understand


It's not normal!

I'm not normal.


Too sensitive to take it in

Yet I do thinking -

Sometimes knowing -

That I can help

But...

Oh, it's so complicated,

Confusing,

Unheard of...


My shoulders crumble

Under the weight of

benevolence
