Empathy


To spot a stranger from far away.
Not knowing their name or their story.
Never having even heard their voice.

You run to them. 

Simply by the look in their eye.
Feeling the loneliness they seep.
So much so that your own eyes tear
At just a sight of their far away stare.

You embrace.

For a moment, to each other you were strangers.
Now to each other you are 
Everything.
