She looks at me,
With tear stains on her cheek.
I can see her spirit,
And it's fragile and weak.
I *FEEL* her pain
And absorb her sorrow.
Thanks to me
She can face tomorrow.
She's begging me,
To make it right.
It's my job
To help her see the light.
Now she smiles,
Her sorrow wanning.
She doesn't know
My soul is straining.
That's the price
Of my terrible gift,
Whenever I make
Someones spirits lift.
It is my burden,
That I willingly carry.
Within myself
Are these sorrows buried.
