Compassion
By: Rachel

Compassion is a feeling that everyone
Feels at least one time in their lives

It is the trust you feel with someone close
And you wouldn’t need to question them
Or yourself

You feel the pain coming from someone you love
All these events can be an emotional tug

The power that ONE individual can bring
It makes the person you’re helping want to sing
Praises and joys of how you’ve saved,
Everything they’ve ever gained.

To care and to love is what this word means
To help and to rescue what you’ve seen
Not to feel sorry for them,
But to make them think again

i agree with most of it. because if the person you're helping doesn't give a crap then what do you do. i think it was good but you could go deeper (i think so at least).

its good that you can understand what compassion is about. because most people dont know how to act or treat one another in a relationship.
