I See

I can see the words in your eyes
before you speak them
I can hear the words in you breath
before you think them
I can see the monkeys on your back
before you feel them
I can feel the load you carry
by the way you walk
I can hear the words that hurt you
in the way you talk
I can see the shame you feel
on the clothes you wear
I can see your fears
weigh your shoulders down
I think volumes
about your frowns
I see things, in little things about you,
that you didn't know were your things
I hear things and feel things surround you
that made you put that wall around you
It's time you put those things behind you
and let me remind you
That the Sun shines bright
and there is Love all around you.
