Empathy

I may be frightened, I may cry, I may even loose my way. But I will find my way back. No matter where I am or what I do know that it was always you this was not me. This was not my choice or my doing. If I was a lover or a friend. A confidant or foe, I became one with who you were. I am sorry there are no words left. Lest I am troubled to know that you have become a stranger. My life will have many trials and tribulations but to continue on without the warm support of you is ok. Now I understand you were a lesson I needed to learn. I am not going to be afraid for I know we all will be enough in the end. I can rest well knowing I did all I could. I was the best I could have been. Even if you might have brought out the worst in me I will cherish the memories for you have brought me.

and I thank you.
