Our Toll

You will pay for trying to hide The darkness that concealed you has more secrets that it does not share The strength it had to hide you is used in so many ways The real fears you have are sneaking up unseen Because the darkness works both ways You may not be seen but your pain and fear will also be invisible I know because i can feel you You are standing so close, I can feel you tremble I cant see your troubles nor the toll they have on you for we are hidden in the darkness Though i can feel the scares and your racing heart because our ability to feel is not effected So we must learn to feel with our hands and out hearts because what we see may be diluted or distorted And, we, as an entirety, have now got to pay!
