The Empath

“The Empath” Fighting the darkness such a futile desire It was I that once asked that my heart might inspire Wanting destiny altered..refusing to see Deluding oneself leads to vast misery I asked understanding the deep mysteries of time I have touched divine purpose and all things sublime So why still do I ask for more answers within? I must take up my cross that true life might begin One day darkness, he answered…you’re forever alone, You are the empath..you can never go home. Why do you wonder if you’re cursed and or blessed? You know all things beautiful but never can rest To see love so clearly feel her beauty unfold You must wander as home sick and give what you know Your heart is the treasure you’ve paid with you life The currency abandonment, betrayal and strife Not for self have you paid, for true love cannot take To know what you asked ones heart bleeds, it must break Though forever concealed, it had to be true Still you have made all the choices it was all up to you.
