Pain

Life is full of pain
But we must live with it
To you ... ... I say
"If I could take all your
pains and bear them I would"

The pain in my heart
Grows more and more
To desire and want
What I can not have.

If I was to say
Your touch gives me a pain,
You reply why and what.
The why I can not answer
The what I can.
The what is a pain of
love, hope, and happiness.

But the again you may
feel the same pains,
that I do not know.

I have no answer to a question "why".
My only guess is because I would bear your pains to the end
of the world and love you all the same.

It's so human to crave that

It's so human to crave that which you cannot have. Sometimes we feel the pain down to our bones.

It sounds 16

I bear no one's pain nor do I wish to ever, no strange urge to be that empathetic. Everyone bears their own pain, they created it, it's theirs! - At 16 I wrote a novel about love, pain was somewhat a part of me, but I had no empathy yet. You are special - Lady A
