My Beating Heart

My pen name, PatheticEmpathetic, offers a lot of insight for this poem. I feel what others feel, and so I do my best to help others. However, sometimes others forget that I, too, am human, and can be overextended.

Why all this talk of death and destruction,

When whats right is to live this life?

Living is seemingly defined by dysfunction,

None goes through life without strife.

I lay the blame,

For all the pain,

in the monsters palms.

On my sleeve my heart,

To be torn apart,

By hands violently asking for alms.

These hands, I see, connected,

To pairs of gangly arms.

I cant be resurrected,

If they choose to do me harm.
