Part ofMe
Part of me,
I absorb it all.
The tears, the fears,
The rise and fall.
It's who I've always been,
Compassion in every breath.
But sometimes I wish
To let go of this depth.
Love takes a toll,
Empathy can be draining.
Putting myself in others' shoes,
Is both a gift and a bane.
But I cannot undo
This part of me,
It's as essential
As the air I breathe.
So I embrace with open arms,
This precious, exhausting gift.
For it is who I am,
And I wouldn't trade it for a shift.
