my sensitive soul feels skinned beyond repair.
I feel pain on a level that no elixir can ease;
tears pour from my soul as apathy merely stares.

A raised rash radiates suffering from the depths of my soul,
feeling every emotion downpour and drown my inner core.
Energies pierce through my soul's shield and take control;
each invasion drains my inner serenity more and more.

Each day my defense grows weak from defeat;
feeling the pain of the world carries great strife.
To avoid feeling on this level would be deceit.
My empathy is my gift and curse in life.

Raw abrasions sting suddenly with a rush of the cool breeze;

feeling every emotion downpour and drown my inner core.
Energies pierce through my soul's shield and take control;

to feel pain is to feel life
so many don't feel at all
whats needed is balance
like a birthday cake ballons children joy
stop looking back
find your dream
make a friend like me

I cannot pickup on other peoples feelings but I have noticed that my "personal space" is a bit larger than others. This might be an intimacy issue but people also feel like I'm starring at them even though they are just in my peripheral vision. I also can feel peoples looks in my neck but I know I'm not alone of that feeling. What I am trying to say is that I can relate but I'm glad I'm able to block peoples feelings out.

Maybe you should ask someone who is in to that whole "aura thing" to help you block it cause I've heard it's possible.

Anyway I enjoyed the read!
