Poem Commentary

this is not one of my better poems

What Am I?

I'm trapped in this box
confined to my emotions
Yet I search for one
one that all humans have
A basic emotion
And i keep searching to no avail
Warmth and life it creates
If I do not have it
then am I not human?
Am I not alive?
I feel alone
Like a creature
a monstrous being
the only one of it's kind
Am I doomed to endure
an eternity in torture
Am I not like you
ever since conception?
Am I just a thing
meant to be hated and destroyed?
Or,
Am I your guardian
The one to take your burdens away?
Am I a thief,
stealing all your worries?
All your problems
you give them unto me
and i suffer
so that you do not
What am I you ask
I am an empath
I am an ally
I will always be there
suffering silently
to help you through
