empathy

why are you trying
to tear your way out of my chest
im exausted at best
why cant you just die inside me
and never come out
my rib cage is about to burst
youve clawed holes in my lungs
i cant get oxygen in my blood
because its started filling up my lungs
i wish you just whispered to me in the dark
instead of crawling inside me 
i feel your claws scratching at my bones
just tear me apart already
get it over with
rip open my body
shred my soul
what are you waiting for
why are you taunting me
shhhh
they might hear you
no one will understand
keep quiet
dont say a word
dont make a sound
i want to lie in the cold ground
where i cant hear the sounds they make
when they scream and beat upon the walls
the built around themsleves
you think i dont see you
but i hear you
i feel you everyday
when you tear at your insides
i feel the monster in me too
when you scream out in agony
i feel the cry rise in my throat
little bird you say
little bird you know nothing
youve felt nothing
youve seen nothing
no my dear
i see what youve seen
i feel what youve felt
i know what youve known
because youve known it
youve felt it
youve seen it
and ive touched you
your demons are my demons
you lights are my lights
your feelings shall be my feelings
and your thoughts
my thoughts
little bird what do you see
im blinded by agony
