When you weep
My heart cries too
I am not sure if this is my pain or your pain
Or just the pain of the Universe
And at times I feel
Anyway
There is no separation here
Between my soul and yours
For are we not just fragments of the same star
That broke apart light years ago
So when others tell me to keep my boundary
I can find some distance
Because I know on an intellectual level
Your pain is not my own
But when deep love or connection is there
Really there is no separation
Between us
And as my fear of suffering
Disappears
And I move towards your pain
With compassion
I recognise
Deep in my heart
How we are kindred
I am not sure if it is my pain or your pain. An awesome line in a poignant but amazing poem.
