Let them Feel

When we say that we feel for another, do our hearts really ache? Does someone else's laughter really flow through our breath? Are we really empathetic or are we just lying not realizing that if we could really feel another's feeling, Life would be so overwhelming, so expansive and so amazingly explosive? Perhaps in protecting ourselves, we're losing out. 
This is a simple one is on empathy and compassion.
On feeling one's own pain completely and on truly feeling another's.

Let them Feel
Let them feel the pain that inflicted it.
And let them know they were the cause.
We shall see then,
How many in this world lack empathy
And who is without compassion.

Let them fix the hearts that broke them
With patches of their own misery.
We shall see then,

What heartless men
Steal others' hearts with no remorse.
