Pain


you tell me of your pain
I can't feel it
but I know it's there
you wouldn't lie to me

it reminds me of me
of how I still can be
and how I let the pain
take away the quality

I want to feel empathy
but I don't know what that feels like
and even if someone tried to explain
I know that no two people feel the same

I wish it would go away
but if it did
something would probably replace it
life's like that

call me a pessimist
perhaps even call me a sadist
I do feel for you
but I won't feel sorry for you
that would just make the pain worse
