Language of the Unseen
By Brendan Brookens
When no one else
Sees my feelings
At least
you do.
My brain
Was sundowning.
I got really sad.
You laid on top of my legs
And fell asleep
Showing loyalty.
You have learned to come
to me
When I’m sad.
When no one else
Sees me
You do.
My dog, Sharkey,
Can hear
Can see
Can feel
What no one else
Can hear
Can see
Can feel
You sense me.
My joy
My fear
My tension
This is our
Unspoken Language
The Language of the Unseen
