How to write down a dream
when everything
was an illusion

How to make the story straight
when it has left
me in confusion

How to fill the blank paper
when my mind
had no idea

That this fata morgana
was something
I could not see

The beauty and pleasure
turned out to be
a total fake

From the moment
that I was
completely awake

So for the future
I have to ask you
please be kind

And live those
petty dreams of you
in your own mind

The most damaging and deceitful lies

are the ones we tell ourselves

Blurt out the truth
Left out of the crowd

Politically incorrect
Amend you must

The truth people speak to have each other’s back
And what they speak behind the back

Doesn’t the conscience get hurt
Or, that’s the only truth it knows

A manicured lie chips away
The spirit of truth cleanses the way
Truth knows no bounds, it is bond free
Just an expression of some thoughts!

Escaped from past pain and can now explain.

The epic fall and tragedy from within humanities food chain.

I said I can explain,
as I have begun to train.

Looking towards a light that illuminates the darkest of eyes and times.

How much of such brightness can I contain and retain?

What I know is I've already lived my last dark days.

I said I can explain,
no longer connected to a ball and chain.

Freedom is now in the sunrise,
see the brightness in my eyes.
