There was something In the way she walked I couldn't quite fathom, Maybe it was the subtle limp From an accident not long ago Or the weary smile From a broken soul But then she looked at me with a sadness That broke the silence between My thoughts And it painfully dawned on me That it wasn't anything about her Rather it was all about me The disgust written on my face, Full of ignorance, My outward perception Of her shabby dirty clothing And I understood I wasn't better than them Who had caused her to endure great pain ©Enock Khapoya Dawn of Empathy #horror
