lila

oh lila

you are but a child

innocent in your play

building castles of sand

and breaking them down

running in the grass

and staining your jeans

so much chaos

you create

so much destruction

you manifest

oh lila

no one understands you

your simplicity is frustrating

everyone remains hallucinated

everyone remains vexed

your divine play

is but an eastern thought

however

is something we all

misconceive

when our layers are stripped

peeled off from our infinite selves

we will realize

who and what you really are

oh lila

you run our world
