A piercing way.

Someone else's news,
But it rings a bell,
In such a piercing way.
Yet it's too close to home to tell.
You can not say you understand,
You can not say you know.
What you feel is empathy,
But its sympathy you show.
You offer your assistance,
And a shoulder, on which to lean,
But you shy a way a little, in case,
They see what cannot be unseen.
