Empathy
Among the alien swamps
you hear their grief and sorrow.
And wait that somebody will die
if not right now then very soon.
No one will help for sure,
When you forget the edge.
When you forget your own self...
No one will say: Drop it!
When you get lost
In your and their feelings.
And somewhere is a faithful friend of yours.
What is about him? Who knows!
The rarer breath, the lower beat.
The ash is inside you, but believe
My words - he is alive, your friend,
And this is pain of stranger loss!
