I can’t seem to let this go
The feeling that I am missing something
I can’t hear their song
Everyone around me
In step and in sync
There is a purpose driving every action
Every footstep leads them one step closer
To some goal
So I wear my mask
To pass amongst them
But I am slipping
Do they know
I can feel the strands
But can’t hear the thrum
I see but don’t feel
The connections between
Brothers and daughters
Husbands and friends
Vibrating from each side
Matching Resonant frequencies
Amplifying each other
Unequal resonance in others
Until the magnitude dwindles
And they stop dancing
This can’t last
Do they know
The song is beautiful because it must end
Still they march in time
