This Empath In Me

This empath in me Is embedded in you Baby, everlastingly, I feel you effortlessly too I will hold you close… I’m your empath nose to nose Chest to chest, eye to eye, no lie I will be there, that, I can’t deny I know when you’re tomato-mad red Know you’re baby-sky blue instead Know you’re yellow… Your true colors show Stay by my side Abide in me, Even when I’m in dismay Life is a strife-bumpy ride I know when you’re any color in the spectrum, The color wheel reveals rainbows of random feelings of numb I hear your heart beat out of your chest, a drum I hear in the dead of night substantially… Your talking is equal to your many-a-silent cry Fall apart and I will catch you…I felt you and your rue I will mend your tears and tears with or without a clue I sleep awake in your arms tonight and all day the next day I have empathy and sympathy combined with all of you I know you like you know yourself and God knows more, okay? Free me and you and maybe, I and you will be happy, true Can’t sleep hours after midnight without you near It’s almost 3 AM already and I am sick of being lonesome I fear you won’t be around anymore, oh my dear, I love you so much, for I’m an empath and hurt unlike some It’s so cruel, yet incredible that I feel for you so much I act as a fool, but I have knowledge above many, beyond the all-aspects-of-life-without-strife touch Have no fear, dear Be not afraid here Shed no tear, want to trade your sorrow for my satisfaction? Here’s shade to shelter you from the sweltering sun that leaves you with sweat and hesitation With scars, You’re beautiful An empath like me…this empath in me…won’t leave me be… Also, so overwhelmed with bittersweet emotions and tremendously terrible trauma Our hearts beat as one strong soul, darling of vital serenity Maybe it was due to past, darksome drama…emotionally and mentally touched by ya I'm afraid I scared you out of the blue With me, being an empath and all, still holding onto non-psychopathic, heartfelt, passionate bliss You're a huge impact in me too, too true Miss you and your kiss, once a light, now an abyss that fell into the shadows, mirroring hopelessness and thrilling ghosts of loneliness Encouraged by purity of positivity and rescue royal radiance inside Discouraged by negativity and swallowed up by tribulation's tide Pros and cons fill my day with dreary, dismal dismay and I pray you earn peace of mind today And, undoubtedly, it kills me inside, yet makes me feel alive with joyous gladness day by day Disheartened for quite an odd reason, Still unknown to me season to season Crows and doves flutter awing, swarming around me in suave sways, Hovering around these delightful, drifting days in wild, haunting days Took me fourteen days to feel fantastic as I float above my feet again endlessly Pour your liquid of lament into my eyes and I will cry with you wholeheartedly Listen…with your heart's desire of helpfulness Take heart…sailor of oceanic art and a marvelous master of majestic, magical, melodic music Glisten…drown away the despair and distress Mend me as I fall apart, rising from the start and share empathy with me, extremely therapeutic

Reading your thoughts now, and my weekend was wonderful. :) I am happy that my simple comment inspired you. I like these parts of the song that you have written. Cute at the end, with boo. I am sure you will collect these thoughts again soon, and then create a masterpiece. :)

Thanks for the compliments on my free verse today and I read it tonight and encouraged me to keep writing. I thought up a song today when I was shopping with my family. I forgot most of the lyrics - the muses of the song in my head was only in the heat of the moment and I had no paper with me haha!
