When they cry,
I feel.
When they feel,
I want to cry.
When they smile,
I am sad.
When they are sad,
I empathize.
When they play,
I sit.
When they sit,
I want to play.
When they care,
I don't.
When they don't,
I hate.
When they talk,
I'm silent.
When they are silent,
I will leave.
When they hope,
I'm hopeless.
When they walk,
I follow.
When they leave,
I'm still.
Something that they know,
but I don't.
So they walk,
So I stand.
