Empathy

I feel so cold and alone
But it just makes no sense
It feels like my heart's been torn from my chest

She says it's a blessing
I swear it's a curse
An emotional empath, there's just nothing worse

These burdens I shoulder
So deeply they wear
The funny thing is, they're not mine to bear

I can't change the facts
It's this way I'm stuck
I just can't bear to see how far others have sunk

All this weight that I carry
I brought on myself
Even though people say it's not good for my health
