The Torment of An Empath

I Feel Them In My Dreams

I’m guilty as charged

the whiners and malcontents

bring me to my knees.

It’s the bane of an empath. When family members come to me with their problems I am unable to hold myself in a neutral place.

Don’t hold back from being an ‘empath.’ Don’t be afraid of shedding your tears. Feel it. Feel the full extent of everything. It gives us strength. Dia Mirza

If you enjoyed this poem, have a look at my book, We Swallow Light. It’s an exploration of events in a past life and a refreshing take on overcoming pain and the joy of finding love.
