Not Seen But Felt
You cannot see pain nor happiness, Only smiles and tears. You can’t see wind, Only the leaves of the trees rustling. All these things cannot be seen but felt.
You can feel the happiness But just can’t explain it. There is a spring to your step And a joy deep down in your heart.
The pain is felt as a deep ache inside you. As the tears make waterfalls down your cheek You don’t understand why the pain was given to you. And you wish it would go away
The wind is felt blowing against your face. It blows through your hair, It makes the violent storms And causes the trees to rustle and make wind chimes ring
You can’t see friendship Only the smiles and tears that it may bring. Each day you don’t know what fights or joys your friends may share. You wake up hoping for the best
You can’t see evil or hatred Only the crimes committed and the lives taken. We wait each and every day for the bad news. Waiting to find out what crime has made the world more evil.
I don’t understand why things are this way It should be these joys we shall cherish at the sight And all the bad that we can watch out for Why are all these things not seen yet we know they are there?
