A wicked blessing

Talk to me, 
and I’ll talk to you; 
even though 
I am annoyed 
that you need me 
only when you are low. 

Empathy is a blessing. 

Come to me,
I’ll never turn you down; 
for I’ll swim 
to the Bermuda Triangle, 
so that you 
don’t drown. 

Empathy
it’s a wicked blessing. 

I will 
bring you back 
again and again
and again. 

And I will lose myself, 
because the empathetic:
they are sick, 
we save others 
and sabotage ourselves. 


Empathy 
it’s wicked.
