Summary:
Random Word Challenge as An English Sonnet/ Theme: Empathy/ Three Words Included: Knock; Condition; Morsal

Forgive me if I’m wrong, but you are me,

and so, it only follows I am you.

Our magical enchanting empathy

is woven into everything we do.

 

I knock when you are locked inside your room

and check on your condition when you’re ill.

I feed you every morsal you consume

and guard your heart so you don’t have to feel

 

the ache of loneliness from love’s demise

or shattered hope when feelings go astray.

I live my life by looking through your eyes

and walking in your footsteps every day.

 

The marks you’ve made across my back are numb.

I’ll never leave.  I live to make you come.

      • I’m glad you think so, Naaj!
        The word actually was “Empathy” – at least, that was the challenge.
        The three words I had to include were Knock, Condition, and Morsal. How random is that?

      • Yeah, GIVE IT TO ME, Sam.
        Don’t you think these posts should automatically reference the theme and three words?
        I mean, I guess we can put those in the summary.

        • I’m thinking of how to automatically reference the post and the words of the challenge … it’s not easy… still working on it… but you got the idea … you’ll have to add the words in the summary if you want people to know more about it
