I see without seeing,
I hear without hearing,
And yet I know your innermost thoughts.
I know what you want
And I know what you know,
I know what you hate
And I know who you love.
I see the story you are weaving,
I hear the song you are singing,
And I know both better than you.
I’d tell you what will happen
If I could.
I’d send you a friend
If I could.
But that is not my place.
I am just a witness,
A member of the audience,
A reader of the book.
