Like Me Too

What am I supposed to do?

When I feel the pain you're feeling too.

I feel everything with the intensity of a thousand suns

So, when others hurt....

I come undone.

I see the anger

The pain

The things you mistakenly call

a monster lurking within

And I feel it too.

I have those same monsters inside of me.

The longing to be freed

The longing to not feel everything

Everything or nothing

Oftentimes a confusing combination of both

The Rage that blindsides

Almost as often as the despair does

And the worst of it all

Worse than the lashing out

The lack of control over a mind you can't quite comprehend

Is the agonizing numb

I see it all

I feel it too

Maybe I'm just crazy

Or maybe...

Maybe you really are

Like Me too.
