Yes and no
No and yes
Constant fights
Within my head
All emotions
I can feel
None are mine
None are real
Never ending circles
Of love and fear
Jealousy abound
And anger rages near
So unfair
This so called gift
All I feel
Happens way to swift
No one knows
The dark truth
All started
Back in my youth
A mere child
So naive
No one to help
This pain be relieved
Suffering and wondering
To and fro
All alone
No place to go
Then she learned
She wasn't alone
But that wasn't
Til long after she'd grown
Now an adult
Still dealing with hell
She has built walls
To protect her heart's shell

Ive been reading your writing and it touches me - each seem to reflect a deep part of myself, like prisms and mirrors...I can relate to your words and thoughts so beautifully expressed. Constant flowing movement of thought and emotion, each as real and deep as the next. Love your writing - please continue and I'll continue reading. Blessed be - Jillian

To know what and who I truly am remains to be seen. My writes are quite diverse. I simply write what comes to me on the spot. As for the many sides of me, I consider myself very prismatic. As for being an empath, let me know what you find for it's definition.
Thank you for your wonderful comment.
Tis much appreciated my dear

Awwwwww, geeeeeeeze, Celtic! You mean you've been putting up your 'happy' front with me for the last fifteen hours and THIS is the real you???!!! Oh man!
OK, and now for my first-ever read of one of your works (and if your like me, one work does not define the person!
) (reading...)
well, you have that teen-angst background, so I'm expecting some flashback here... OH, a psychotic piece... OK... ah, the torment of love! ...uh-oh, a victim of child abuse... nice appropriate phrase then, 'this so-called gift'... now what could that gift be, feelings? beauty? ...walls! WALLS! I don't see them in you, my lunar lady, unless I see only a brick in a huge wall before me! Now my latest daughter on the other hand... she has walls I thought worthy to help her deal with... but you??? OK, that may be a dimension of who you are. So, the poem was a good write, girls will relate, it was a bit of therapy for you, and a guy read it who has an usually deep perception of human existence... so now if this you I don't know, your author's comment is cryptic! I'll have to go look up what an empath is... someone with great empathy, perhaps???
So, I see you, like many, are composed of many pieces of a jigsaw puzzle...
see what one can get from such a seemingly simple, straight-forward write!
So if my friendship helps or hurts remains to be seen!

I can totally relate. I have experienced these emotions from the first part. My girlfriend is; too. I try to help and protect her with whatever she is going through. Keep it up. This is a very simple write, making it easy to read and understand. Like I said; keep it up

I can relate alot to this poem. Especially the very first parts about argument in the head. ^_^ sorry...I'm weird. Good write though. Keep it up!
