PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

“Walk a mile in someone's shoes."

For me that is not enough.
It's not merely about sympathy.
Or empathy.
Shoes only show where you've been.

I want to seep in your flesh.
Feel the contractions of your heart and lungs.
Hear your blood rush.
Be jolted by your nerves.
Access the videos of your mind.
To understand.
To TRULY understand.
What it feels like to be you.
