I hear and I feel, but I don't see. So if the words drown in your throat before you have the time to take a breath, that's okay. Take my hand and drag it over the etched Braille in your skin. I can't see the depth of your sorrow, but I can feel it. Take me through each chapter, but don't part your lips. I'll feel each page turn at the tip of my fingers. I can't see the mistakes you tried to erase, but couldn't because the ink stained the pages. But I can feel the history when it slithers down your cheek. I can feel the pain coating my lips as I kiss away the past. I do not need eyes to read the novel written in yours. Just guide my hand, and I'll read all the things you are too afraid to say.
