Feeling You

I have not seen your face
Yet I have felt deeply your soul
I know that I have known you always
And I know love has taken its toll

The desire that burns deep within
The fear that holds everything back
The love you simply will not allow
The courage from within that you lack

I know the secrets of your heart
All that you hold in your silence
The fight that takes place only inside
The act of denying self; your defiance

Still at the depth of your soul is love
Waiting ever so patiently to be released
Begging for the mercy only you can give
While you instead hang on to the raging beast
