yesterday i bought a guinea pig with an upper respitory infection
drained my bank account on antibiotics and cautious care
i'm biting my lip as she sits still in her house, breathing hard
i'm gently wiping her nose and eyes clean every hour.

why can't i stop loving the ones that die

Oh gosh, perhaps because you have so much empathy you can hardly find another way to release it?

What is her name - say she has a name...

[joycake]

so much empathy that i live my life digging graves
empathy or a fucked up complex, one of the two

she will be named within the next 48 hours. it will either be "Barely" or "dead."

if you cannot save her, at the very least she will die feeling loved. and that is more than most can say.

[joycake]

you're right. and still.
