I still believe
In spite of the illusions around
In spite of the lies spread
I still believe
Most of it is fake
Just to mock and fool
Confuse
Scare
Project your fears
But I still believe
There is some aura for real
I still believe
Me, the lowest of low
Me, who can be joked at, laughed at and fooled
Me, who is not sure if i am free
I still believe

ReplyDeleteMe, who is not sure if i am free
Even in the face of our own doubts
as well as that of everyone else selling theirs
if we can feel even just the edge
of the emanation of underlying truth
somehow, we can't let go of it entirely...
and perhaps by acting on it, loving it and living it
While we can can be joked at, laughed at and fooled
Sets us free.
You set off good thinking in me today:)
Thank you.
