empathy

My heart feels heavy,
actually all of me feels heavy.

I feel tired. Beyond tired, I feel like I'm a thousand years old.

Is this what feeling feels like?
Is this what compassion feels like,
Sorrow,
Sympathy
Empathy?

If to have empathy and understanding is to suffer & hurt, why do we try so much?

At times like this, I feel like I'm a being who has lived for so long & has seen so much that I feel no point in seeing any further, knowing any further and feeling any further.

Why, when the whole world is filled with sorrow?
