Sensitivity.

The word has such meaning behind it.

You can weave a beautifully tragic tale.

My whole life,

I thought I was a horrible person.

Hurting those around me,

Tearing myself apart.

I always looked at the glass half empty

In that sense.

Never realizing what a gift it truly is.

Can anyone else say they feel everything

With their heart and soul?

Can anyone else be moved by the

Simplest of gestures?

Can anyone write with the same passion and devotion

That a sensitive person can?

The answer is no.

It's time to stop fixing what makes me so unique,

What makes me, me.

It's time to stop hiding this beautifully tragic part

Of myself.

It's time to be me.
