I am invisible.
I make everything around me invisible.
But you touch my hand,
And I become a faint silhouette.
Faint, but still I am something none the less.
I am tangible,
When you hold my hand.
But you don't hold my hand very often.
You forget to,
Because you forget me.
But I am surprised
That when you open your eyes,
You don't see your empire crumbling around you.
Because when I stood next to you,
I made your world invisible.
You couldn't see the wolves behind you,
Because I was beside you.
But now, your whole world suddenly burst into light.
And reflected off the teeth
Of the monsters at your heels.
Don't forget about your silent guardians, who keep your demons at bay.
